Export pdf to image using command line options

Copy link to clipboard

Hi, so i've read through the documentation and i see that there are command line arguments that can be used to print a pdf. Is there a way to control the export functionality from the command line also? I'd like to be able to pass the path of a pdf to the executable and specify that an image (jpeg) should be generated. Can someone please help me with this.
Thanks in advance!
Mike

There are no such command line arguments.

Acrobat has thousands of pages of development interfaces in the Acrobat SDK. I dread to think what the command line would look like that supported all of them. A combination of OLE and JavaScript might meet your needs.

On Mac OS X:
sips -s format jpeg your_pdf_file.pdf --out your_jpeg_file.jpg

There are plenty of open source tools which can do this on Windows as well. I recommend ImageMagick.
