-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hello, I ran into problems while converting images to pdf using convert: a) Acrobat Reader does not draw the MediaBox around the image if the image does not fill the entire page. This looks ugly if images of different size or aspect ratio are merged into a single pdf. convert in.png -page A4 out.pdf Pdfs generated by gimp/cairo and merged by gs are displayed correctly. b) The page switch has no visual effekt if several images are merged into one pdf regardless wether -adjoin was explicitly specified or not. convert in-1.png in-2.png -page A4 out.pdf c) The CropBox values are to small. I get tiny pictures when merging several pdfs into one by using the density switch. convert in-1.png -page A4 -density 300 -units PixelsPerInch 1.pdf convert in-2.png -page A4 -density 300 -units PixelsPerInch 2.pdf convert 1.pdf 2.pdf -page A4 out.pdf d) The output density of images gernerated by the gimp is incorrectly multiplied by 2.5. This is probably a centimeter-inch / locale issue. convert in.png -density 300 -units PixelsPerInch out.png Does anyone know a workaround?
