Multipage PDF to 1,2... n jpgs

Post by feyyaz78 »

i want to generate multiple jpgs for every page in an pdf

i use this command line (nconvert v4.79)

nconvert -out jpeg -xall -o test.jpg -thumb 370 510 input.pdf

if the pdf has 5 pages nconvert generates 5 jpegs, but every jpeg contains the first page of the pdf.

first i thougt the pdf is maybe in an strange format, but xnview shows every page using the frame navigation.

am i forgetting an importend parameter in the command line or could it be a bug?

please help.
