I need to convert EPS files to JPEG files. So far, all I get is failure notices.

The first question is will PIL do this trick?

And the second is, OK what am I doing wrong?

I've installed PIL-1.1.5-py2.3-macosx10.3 on my IMac running OS 10.3.7 and Python 2.3 (#1, Sep 13 2003, 00:49:11).

I adapted the following test from the PDF version of the handbook _ PIL 1.1.3 | March 12, 2002 | Fredrik Lundh, Matthew Ellis.

I run the script with Python-Launcher 2.3.

#!/usr/bin/python
import os, sys
import Image
infile='/text/data/1055.eps'
outfile = "/text/1055.pdf"
if infile != outfile:
        try:
                im = Image.open(infile)
                print infile, im.format, "%dx%d" % im.size, im.mode
                im.thumbnail((15, 15))
                im.save(outfile, "PDF")
        except IOError:
                print 'Cannot create ' +outfile+' thumbnail for', infile




I've tried JPEG, BMP, PDF, etc as output types and get the same message.

P120:~ billmac$ "/usr/bin/python" "/text/PIL_test.py" && echo Exit status: $? && exit 1
/text/data/1055.eps EPS 70x71 L
Cannot create /text/1055.pdf thumbnail for /text/data/1055.eps
Exit status: 0
logout
[Process exited - exit code 1]


It's seeing the file, but can't create the export.

What am I missing?

Thanks,

Bill
