There's a way to convert PDF to JPG using it as long as you have <cfexecute> in order to call command-line functions: > convert somefile.pdf somefile.jpg simple, huh? :D > convert -scale 100x100 somefile.pdf somefile.jpg will create the JPG scaled down based on which is larger, width or height. > convert somefile.pdf[0] somefile.jpg will create a jpg of ONLY the first page of a PDF. Otherwise you get files somefile.jpg.0 through somefile.jpg.N where the PDF file has N pages. You can also use this to convert PDF to TIFF or GIF.
