Hello everyone,

I have to convert a lot of PDFs to TIFFs.
I used Adobe Acrobat or Photoshop Configurators with Switch but it's slower than our needs.
I'm considering to run ImageMagick by Execute command on Windows.
http://www.imagemagick.org/script/index.php

Actually I want to know how popular it is among Switch users.
If there are pioneers here, do you recommend me to use this?
Or if you know any other good ways to convert PDFs to TIFFs, please give me advises.

Regards,

Hi Terkelsen,

Thank you for your quick reply.
I watch this at first.

Thanks!

ImageMagick is commonly used in Switch by many users. You also normally get GhostScript installed together with ImageMagick and that is the best way to convert PDF's to imageformats. The PDF will then be "Ripped" by GhostScript and you will have a lot of options on how the image should be saved.

One advantage with running CLI apps in ExecuteCommand is that you can run those processes in parallell if you turn on the flows option "Allow advanced performance tuning" to Yes. ImageMagick/GhostScript is quick and if you can run several of the at the same time you gain a lot of time.

There are a few things to keep in mind for the configuration.


Good Luck
