I'm using TYPO3 CMS 7.6 with PHP 5.5.2 on a Windows Server 2012 (IIS), my Server administrator installed ghostscript, graphicsmagick 1.3.25 and imagemagick. Now I use graphicsmagick:

C:/GraphicsMagick/gm.exe

It works, test all graphic manipulation on install tool: Convert image formats to jpg or scaling or combining images ... only PDF Thumbnails or convert PDF to JPG isn't working.

Screenshot:enter image description here

Error: Read pdf

Image generation failed
ImageMagick / GraphicsMagick handling is enabled, but the execute command returned an error. Please check your settings, especially ['GFX']['im_path'] and ['GFX']['im_path_lzw'] and ensure Ghostscript is installed on your server.

The path to gm or im is correct, because the other formats are working fine. 

[GFX][im_path] = C:/GraphicsMagick/
[GFX][im_path_lzw] = C:/GraphicsMagick/

Me and my system admin don't know why TYPO3 can't create PDF Thumbnails in backend and frontend. Maybe there's something with ghostscript .. but he can create pdfs via windows command line?!? So that's a TYPO3 Problem?!

Thanks for your help or hints. ..

No PDF Thumbnails , see backend

pdf preview backend

  • check wether the php-tmp path is writable for the php-user. I don't know if that can occur on windows. it's a common mistake on our linux-servers. – Bernd Wilke πφ Jun 22 '17 at 14:00
  • hi bernd. I'll give the info to my admin. But he said, that he can read and write PDF-Files via Command Line. So, Ghostscript is working. I guess TYPO3 is missing the path to Ghostscript..?! – user2310852 Jun 22 '17 at 15:13
  • I think my path to Ghostscript is wrong. In C.\GraphicsMagick\delegates.mgk was sth. like ` – user2310852 Jun 22 '17 at 15:43
  • This issue is still unsolved. The path wasn't the problem. PDF and AI is still not working with `TYPO3` and `Windows Server`. Does somebody still have an idea? I will make a new instance with linux and will test it. – user2310852 Jun 27 '17 at 15:20
  • you may look [here] (http://www.imagemagick.org/discourse-server/viewtopic.php?t=15056) where the problem is based on differences between 32bit and 64bit application / configuration. – Bernd Wilke πφ Jun 28 '17 at 11:08
  • thanks bernd, I will inform my server admin .. maybe he can solve the problem. Thanks for your comment. I will update this post, If it works. – user2310852 Jun 29 '17 at 12:19
  • Now, we have installed all applications with 64bit. IIS, `GraphicsMagick 1.3.23` and `Ghostscript 9.22`. Still nothing, TYPO3 cannot convert PDF -> jpg. We test on server console `"c:\program files\GraphicsMagick\gm.exe" - convert c:\temp\Test.pdf c:\temp\Test.jpg`and it works. TYPO3 didn't find the right path to ghostscript, I don't know?! – user2310852 Feb 20 '18 at 11:16
  • Possibly a permissions issue in the policy.xml file for Imagemagick reading PDFs. See https://stackoverflow.com/questions/52861946/imagemagick-not-authorized-to-convert-pdf-to-an-image/52863413#52863413 – fmw42 Jun 06 '19 at 16:46

with installing GraphicsMagick also install Ghostscript on window Server. You can download Ghostscript from here https://www.ghostscript.com/download/gsdnld.html. Before downloading please check also the window is 64 bit or 32 bit.Then again check Environment>image Processing and Test Image. Then in "Image processing" everything is loaded successfully also "Read pdf" and "Read ai"

I have still the same problem. My TYPO3 7.6.24 LTS will not convert PDF- and AI-files to jpg. All other files are working.

Today I've update ghostscript 9.22 and graphicsMagic 1.3.23 on my windows server (IIS). Everything runs with 64bit now.

Successfully, I also tested GraphicsMagick to convert the pdf to jpg via command line cmd.exe, f.e.

"c:\Program Files\GraphicsMagick\gm.exe" -convert -geometry 160x130 c:\temp\test.pdf c:\temp\test123.jpg

But it won't work with TYPO3, see error on initial post ... now I've no idea anymore ..?! anyone else?

Have you also set the path of GraphicsMagick in TYPO3 admin panel settings>Configuration Presets>Image handling settings>write a path or select a path it should be like this screenshot as below enter image description here
