convert png to pdf using ghostscript
ghostscript, pdf
Solution
Ghostscript can output multiple formats (png included) but I don't believe it is able to take png as an input. You may be able to accomplish your goal using something like imagemagick's `convert` utility, though: `convert test.png test.pdf`
Problem
as the title says I am trying to convert png to pdf. I could not find well described example anywhere about this. I used this command ``` gs sDEVICE=pdfwrite -dNOPAUSE -dBATCH -dSAFER -sOutputFile=test.pdf test.png ``` but all I get is ``` Error: /syntaxerror in (binary token, type=137) Operand stack: Execution stack: %interp_exit .runexec2 --nostringval-- --nostringval-- --nostringval-- 2 %stopped_push --nostringval-- --nostringval-- --nostringval-- false 1 %stopped_push 1894 1 3 %oparray_pop 1893 1 3 %oparray_pop 1877 1 3 %oparray_pop 1771 1 3 %oparray_pop --nostringval-- %errorexec_pop .runexec2 --nostringval-- --nostringval-- --nostringval-- 2 %stopped_push Dictionary stack: --dict:1161/1684(ro)(G)-- --dict:0/20(G)-- --dict:77/200(L)-- Current allocation mode is local GPL Ghostscript 9.07: Unrecoverable error, exit code 1 ``` this error message. And now I started wodering if such feature is possible in ghostscript. Should I use other software? ** I'm runing the latest 9.07 version
