[SOLVED] conversion from text-only pdf to pagewise image files ... - bkpsusmitaa - 07-04-2023

Solution was also received from Mr. Bob Friesenhahn, GraphicsMagick Maintainer, at https://sourceforge.net/p/graphicsmagick/mailman/message/37865915/ with the lines:

Code:

convert -density 100 LoopEternal.pdf -colorspace Gray -colorspace rgb -fill blue -colorize 0/0/100  \

 -transparent white +adjoin imagecon/image-%03d.png

and

Code:

convert -density 100 LoopEternal.pdf -colorspace Gray -colorspace rgb-fill blue -colorize 0/0/100 \

I sincerely apologised for having two very kind and empowered individuals, Mr. 'Christy and Mr. Friesenhahn, to work for my single
problem, and creating the situation for them to duplicate their efforts. This was unintended, as I couldn't make out until today, if
there was a difference between the commands "convert" and "gm convert". convert for debian man page said that the command convert belonged to graphicsmagick.

My admiration for Mr. 'Christy and Mr. Friesenhahn knows no bounds, just like I really admire Mr. rich2005.

Thank you, dear all and best wishes,
Rajib
