It is mentioned nowhere on the website. I want to convert hundreds of picture into a pdf, it fails EVERYTIME. I couldn't grop the old imagemagick file either. I use to do that kind of compilation, can't do otherwise, and I use to do bigger directories.

Thanks for your help. gm -version GraphicsMagick 1.3.31 2018-11-17 Q16 http://www.GraphicsMagick.org/ Copyright (C) 2002-2018 GraphicsMagick Group. Additional copyrights and licenses apply to this software. See http://www.GraphicsMagick.org/www/Copyright.html for details.

  • Why so angry? Start with just one image and show how you tried to make a PDF from it and what the error message was. – Mark Setchell Dec 06 '18 at 16:26
  • See https://stackoverflow.com/questions/52861946/imagemagick-not-authorized-to-convert-pdf-to-an-image/52863413#52863413. There is an ImageMagick policy.xml file that controls security. PDFs have a security entry the restricts its use due to a bug in older versions of Ghostscript, which has since been fixed. But the default policy is now to disallow reading of PDFs unless you edit the policy. Not that in .magick, which is your private location, you can only make the policy more strict. You need to change the main policy.xml file. see https://imagemagick.org/script/resources.php – fmw42 Dec 06 '18 at 21:51
  • Sorry I misread your post. The policy.xml file is for reading PDF. You do not need that for writing PDF in ImageMagick. `convert input.suffix output.pdf` should do that. I do not use GraphicsMagick, so cannot comment on it. But my command does work on ImageMagick. – fmw42 Dec 06 '18 at 22:31
