Had to split a pdf into seperate jpg files for each page earlier and dug up my notes on how to do this.
convert file.pdf file.jpg
Unfortunately the resolution was messed up in the output files so had to do some digging on google to find this forum post which sorted the problem with:
convert -density 400 in.pdf -scale 2000x out.jpgtext
Works a treat. I had figured out the -scale part but the -density bit I had missed. I’ve also been using another ImageMagick command quite a lot recently to prepare folders of photos for Facebook upload. This one changes the source images so best make a copy of the pictures first.
mogrify -resize 800x *.jpg
Off course, these are linux commands so might not work on Windows.

Hi there, i read your blog occasionally and i own a similar one and i was just wondering if you get a lot of spam remarks? If so how do you reduce it, any plugin or anything you can advise? I get so much lately it’s driving me insane so any assistance is very much appreciated.

Woah! I’m really digging the template/theme of this blog. It’s simple, yet effective. A lot of times it’s difficult to get that “perfect balance” between user friendliness and appearance. I must say you have done a very good job with this. Also, the blog loads extremely fast for me on Chrome. Excellent Blog!

Hey would you mind sharing which blog platform you’re using? I’m going to start my own blog in the near future but I’m having a tough time selecting between BlogEngine/Wordpress/B2evolution and Drupal. The reason I ask is because your design and style seems different then most blogs and I’m looking for something unique. P.S Sorry for getting off-topic but I had to ask!
