READIMAGE FUNCTION PHP code example

Example: READIMAGE FUNCTION PHP

Use this to convert all pages of a PDF to JPG:



<?php

$imagick = new Imagick();

$imagick->readImage('myfile.pdf');

$imagick->writeImages('converted.jpg', false);

?>



If you need better quality, try adding $imagick->setResolution(150, 150); before reading the file!



If you experience transparency problems when converting PDF to JPEG (black background), try flattening your file:



<?php

$imagick = new Imagick();

$imagick->readImage('myfile.pdf[0]');

$imagick = $imagick->flattenImages();

$imagick->writeFile('pageone.jpg');

?>



In order to read pages from a PDF-file use [PAGENUMBER] after the filename (pages start from zero!).



Example: Read page #1 from test.pdf



<?php

$imagick = new Imagick();

$imagick->readImage('test.pdf[0]');

$imagick->writeImage('page_one.jpg');

?>
