AVAILABILITY
WA2L/WinTools
DESCRIPTION
convert one or more
*.pdf
file(s) to
*.png
file(s).
Each given
file1.pdf
is converted to
file1.png
as long as the destination file (
file1.png
) does not exist already.
The
pdf2png
command should be installed to the
'Send To'
context menu in
'Microsoft™ Windows Explorer'
for most convenient usage. To do so, invoke
pdf2png -i
once respectively select the 'File conversion'
checkbox in the
config(1m)
command.
To change the default command line options of the
convert(3)
command that is internally used to perform the conversion
do this by specifying those options in the
PDF2PNG_OPTIONS=options
setting in the optional
etc/pdf2png.cfg
file.

When installed in the
