amites Posted June 26, 2008 Share Posted June 26, 2008 Hello, I have a brain stumper that's been bugging me for a little while now, anyone have a good place to start for importing a PDF file and being able to manipulate it as an image? I'm doing this for someone who's site does not have imagemagick or ghostscript installed making things a little tricker than normal, found a number of people looking for this very thing in this forum and on google, the long term value of this script will be to create thumbnails from PDF files on the fly, if no-one can point me towards a simple solution a good place to dive in would be nice, if I need to write something on my own I'll be publishing it as a Class for the community thank you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wolphie Posted June 26, 2008 Share Posted June 26, 2008 My post isn't really all that helpful, but from my experience I don't think there is a way of doing this without an additional library. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
amites Posted June 26, 2008 Author Share Posted June 26, 2008 given I'm going to need another library, such as GD and probably PDFlib my goal is to make it so that the required libraries can either be included in a distribution, or are standard components Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
