| unixbsd | hello how to convert a PDF to JPG? | 17:12.32 |
| | gs -q -dNOPAUSE -dBATCH -sDEVICE=pdfwrite -sOutputFile=output.pdf -c .setpdfwrite -f input.pdf | 17:12.35 |
| | ?? | 17:12.39 |
| chrisl | Use the jpeg device | 17:13.31 |
| unixbsd | can I get 350 DPI? | 17:13.39 |
| chrisl | -r350 | 17:13.47 |
| unixbsd | I need 350 DPI image from that PDF? | 17:13.49 |
| chrisl | gs -sDEVICE=jpeg -r350 -o output%03d.jpg input.pdf | 17:14.39 |
| unixbsd | thank you | 17:14.56 |
| chrisl | NP | 17:15.01 |
| unixbsd | Perfect !!!! gs -sDEVICE=jpeg -r850 -o output%03d.jpg input.pdf | 17:16.48 |
| | thank you very much you help me a lot | 17:17.05 |
| chrisl | No problem, glad it works for you | 17:19.54 |
| unixbsd | here please find herewith a little gesture of thanks ... so much I may help. C multi use tool: | 17:20.38 |
| | https://termbin.com/2qbg4 | 17:20.42 |
| | too large ;) | 17:21.23 |
| | https://zerobin.net/?bc3ce424e260f9c8#UuXUaY8hSg+SfiuL9DZUpf3k6vyRQR6Peeo7iGRKdsM= | 17:25.24 |
| chrisl | Looks..... interesting...... | 17:28.08 |
| unixbsd | oh man | 17:29.49 |
| | it crashes with xpaint | 17:29.55 |
| | it seems that xpaint fails to open the created jpg. Is there maybe a PNG drriver too? | 17:30.20 |
| | png16m | 17:36.26 |
| | <89>PNG ... all fine | 17:40.03 |
| | no idea, why xpaint crashes to open it | 17:40.13 |
| | gs -dSAFER -dBATCH -dNOPAUSE -sDEVICE=png16m -r1050 -o output\%03d.png | 17:40.36 |
| | anyhow | 17:40.39 |
| chrisl | If your gs is reasonably up to date, you don't need the -dSAFER more - it's the default | 17:41.29 |
| unixbsd | I know why | 17:51.59 |
| | gs makes a file without iCC | 17:52.08 |
| | gimp shows me taht the file is not converted, that's why xpaint crashes. | 17:52.23 |
| chrisl | You mean *with* ICC, surely? | 17:55.02 |
| unixbsd | without or with, no idea, i click on yes when gimp opens, it does convert each files. | 17:55.42 |
| chrisl | IIRC, *recent* versions of Ghostscript embed a profile in the output where we can | 17:56.12 |
| | TBH, it's not exactly my area! | 17:56.55 |
| unixbsd | me neither | 18:00.05 |
| chrisl | I don't immediately see a way to disable embedding of the profile. It's kind of rubish that xpaint crashes, rather than just ignore the profile, though :-( | 18:01.25 |
| unixbsd | I wished I could give you the crashing jpg or png file, I cannot give .( :( If I find one, I give you some dasy. | 18:04.23 |
| chrisl | I'm not an xpaint developer, not sure there would be much I could do with it! | 18:05.57 |
| unixbsd | no one do dev on xpaint | 18:17.19 |
| | no one may like x11 any longer. | 18:17.30 |
| | Linux moves into systemd , qt6, and shinning modern, bloeated tools and software | 18:17.57 |
| chrisl | Well, I agree.... except, x11 has been pretty bloated since the early '90s! | 18:18.54 |
| unixbsd | do you think that x11 is bloated ? | 18:19.10 |
| | why | 18:19.11 |
| | https://gitlab.com/openbsd98324/xpdfedit <--- | 18:19.33 |
| | this is nothing compared to how much is bloated the whole linux core softwrae | 18:19.45 |
| | cmake and automaking tools as never ever.... finally instead of having a little x11 apps, we have a super swiss knife that can everything and that no one can compile or make use of | 18:20.23 |
| | this is just programming politics or ego. | 18:20.31 |
| chrisl | I didn't x11 apps were bloated, I said x11 was bloated. And I'm certainly not claiming Wayland is *better*..... | 18:21.23 |
| | s/didn't/didn't say | 18:21.37 |
| unixbsd | ah aha so much better will be wayland | 18:21.45 |
| | the linux dev is so much happy to go wayland | 18:21.56 |
| | they are the best for mass destruction | 18:22.01 |
| | ... something like "Humans" are.. maybe our nature to screw all. | 18:22.15 |
| chrisl | But there are limitations deep in the x11 architecture that make things problematic with high resolutions, accelerations etc.... Not saying Wayland is the solution, but x11 has been creaking for some time | 18:24.10 |
| unixbsd | well. | 18:24.50 |
| | this is way why I code myself | 18:25.02 |
| | my code is a dirt. | 18:25.07 |
| | But I keep my code and I clean up my dirt .. on the same code -- right very same. | 18:25.23 |
| | THIS means to take energy to clean up | 18:25.32 |
| | In summation, the energy requested will be less than making a new dirt. | 18:25.49 |
| chrisl | At least we have that chance to do our own stuff | 18:26.28 |
| unixbsd | what do you mean? | 18:26.46 |
| chrisl | We have a rich and varied world of open source software.... if we dislike something enough, we can change it | 18:27.33 |
| unixbsd | not really | 18:27.42 |
| | you cannot write the kernel yourself | 18:27.50 |
| chrisl | I could if I felt strongly enough about it | 18:28.41 |
| unixbsd | really... | 18:30.17 |
| | I fight at ##linux to remove Google from that kernel | 18:30.30 |
| | I believe in #linux-legacy <--- no google junks | 18:30.46 |
| | we make 50 50 ... give me kernel; I give you the userland in C !! | 18:32.43 |
| | here all starts from this init.c | 18:32.53 |
| chrisl | Anyway, it's late (here), and I'm tired.... going afk | 18:33.15 |
| unixbsd | init.c https://termbin.com/hrb7 | 18:33.21 |
| | we keep in touch.... rest | 18:33.32 |
| | Mission completed! gs -q -dNOPAUSE -dBATCH -sDEVICE=pdfwrite -sOutputFile=output.pdf -c .setpdfwrite -f "combine.pdf" | 18:51.21 |
| | I converted pdfs to single pdf page, then gimp on each to modify, then back to pdflatex with tex, to make pdf docs, then pdftk to merge | 18:51.59 |
| | and 100mb, then pdf to pdf to get smaller size. done ! | 18:52.13 |
| | I go to bed soon too | 19:09.07 |
| | good night | 19:09.10 |
