Looks like it affects anything to do with non-pdf files. I cannot do anything 
at all with non-pdf types. Drag/drop doesn't work. Pdf-ize doesn't work.

This seems to affect the ability of ImageMagick to write pdf files. I 
understand that there are security implications for some systems but reading 
the stackoverflow article I don't think they apply. 

Can we try to enable read|write of pdf files and see if that helps?
