Download latest version of ImageMagick. Unpacked it. Installing Ghostscript like this:
$ sudo apt-get install ghostscript
After that try to configure ImageMagick:
$ ./configure --with-gslib
$ make
$ make install
After that i try to conver PDF to jpg
$ sudo /usr/local/bin/convert in.pdf out.jpg
And i see this mistake
convert: no decode delegate for this image format `/tmp/magick-BzHdr4Kp-00000001' # error/constitute.c/ReadImage/544.
convert: Postscript delegate failed `in.PDF': Нет такого файла или каталога # error/pdf.c/ReadPDFImage/678.
convert: no images defined `out.jpg' # error/convert.c/ConvertImageCommand/3044.
What i'm doing wrong?
Try the following convert commands to see more precisely what's possibly going wrong:
convert a.pdf -debug coder a.jpg
convert a.pdf -debug all a.jpg
There will possibly be a lot of output going to stderr. Amongst the lines you may see where IM is looking for Ghostscript. Also, try
convert -list delegate
convert -list delegate | grep --color -E '(eps|pdf)'
to find with which exact commandlines ImageMagick tries to run Ghostscript (it may call gsx instead of gs, or it may look for it in /usr/local/bin/...). If you find any deviations from your real Ghostscript installation, you can possibly fix it by editing delegates.xml.
convert -list configure
will show you how ImageMagick is configured (and if, for example, gs was during compile-time in the list in DELEGATES variables). Here you also find where to look for delegates.xml:
convert -list configure | grep CONFIGURE_PATH
should list the directory where this (as well as some more) *.xml settings files are located which control how convert et al. behave...

I used to be able to convert text to an image using ImageMagick but now I get this error message:
$ echo text | convert -background none text:- file
convert: no encode delegate for this image format `TEXT' # error/constitute.c/WriteImage/1167.
ImageMagick was installed using Homebrew

In IM 7, convert is replaced by magick. You also have not specified an output image format for "file". Try this:
echo "text" | magick -background none text:- file.png
or
echo "text" | magick -background none text:- PNG32:file
That works for me on IM 7.0.7.10 Q16 Mac OSX
What do you get from
magick -version
Does it include freetype?
If not, then you probably need to install Freetype with ImageMagick via Homebrew
I am using following environment:
Ubunut : 11.0 (virtual machine)
Imagemagick : ImageMagick-6.9.3-7
I have execut following command:
wget http://www.imagemagick.org/download/ImageMagick.tar.gz
tar xzvf ImageMagick.tar.gz
ls
cd ImageMagick<version number here>/
./configure
make clean
make
sudo make install
ldconfig /usr/local/lib
After executing below command:
make check
40 test case 39 pass only 1 is fail (FAIL: tests/wandtest.tap 1)
Now i want to convert pdf file to jpg via command:
convert test.pdf test.jpg
convert: no decode delegate for this image format PNG' # error/constitute.c/ReadImage/501.
convert: no images definedtest.jpg' # error/convert.c/ConvertImageCommand/3252
convert test.pdf test.png
convert: no decode delegate for this image format PNG' # error/constitute.c/ReadImage/501.
convert: no images definedtest.png' # error/convert.c/ConvertImageCommand/3252.
anyone can suggest me how can i do ?
ImageMagick uses assorted external libraries to do its dirty work as far as input and output handling goes for various formats. In your case:
For reading PDFs, you need to have Ghostscript installed. Also it needs to be in your path as gs in order to work, so don't use that for some other shell alias. For more details see: https://superuser.com/q/819277/33767
For writing PNGs you'll need libpng.
Once those things are on your system (and in the case you compiled IM yourself, on your system at the time of compile) you should be golden.
It may be that the issue is not with the writing but with the reading of the PDF itself.
Check the ImageMagick policy.xml.
sudo nano /etc/ImageMagick-6/policy.xml
Find the PDF and change to this:
<policy domain="coder" rights="read|write" pattern="PDF" />
This solved for me.
Same problem. Solved it with:
apt-get -y install ghostscript
I have PDFs that I need to convert to images. I have installed Imagemagick. I have a PDF named a.pdf that I can open (it is not corrupt) in the folder C:\Convert\
From the command line I am trying

And I am getting the error.

UPDATE:
After the SO community helped me solve this issue I put together a little tool to batch convert images. Hope it helps somebody.

You need to install Ghostscript in order to rasterize vector files (PDF, EPS, PS, etc.) with ImageMagick. IM will shell out to Ghostscript when doing these manipulations (you can see it if you use the -verbose tag in your IM invocation). You could also use Ghostscript by itself to rasterize vector files.
Since you actually have to install Ghostscript to do this, why not drop ImageMagick all-together? It just forwards the command to Ghostscript anyway, not adding any value, just taking way longer to process (and loading everything into RAM while its at it).
Install GhostScript and run the command:
gswin64c.exe -dNOPAUSE -sDEVICE=jpeg -r200 -dJPEGQ=60 -sOutputFile=foo-%03d.jpg foo.pdf -dBATCH
This is identical and faster than running:
convert -quality 60 -density 200 foo.pdf foo-%03d.jpg
It's in the docs now. https://github.com/dlemstra/Magick.NET/blob/main/docs/ConvertPDF.md
You need to install the latest version of GhostScript before you can convert a pdf using Magick.NET.
Make sure you only install the version of GhostScript with the same
platform. If you use the 64-bit version of Magick.NET you should also
install the 64-bit version of Ghostscript. You can use the 32-bit
version together with the 64-version but you will get a better
performance if you keep the platforms the same.

I found that I had installed GhostScript, but GhostScript was not able to execute because it needed additional libraries. By typing "gs" on a command line, I was able to see what libraries were missing.

I am on CentOS 6.4 and trying to convert .CDR to .SVG Convert Using ImageMagick using SSH command.
my 1.cdr file is in /var/www/vhosts/website.com/httpdocs/test/1.cdr
once converted to SVG it should be created in the same folder
Tried the following command:
convert /var/www/vhosts/website.com/httpdocs/test/1.cdr image.svg
The Error I am getting is:
sh: mplayer: command not found convert: Delegate failed "mplayer"
"%i" -really-quiet -ao null -vo png:z=3' #
delegate.c/InvokeDelegate/1032. convert: missing an image filename
image.svg' # convert.c/ConvertImageCommand/2800.
Not sure what does that mean ?
In order to convert CDR files you need to install uniconvertor for CDR delegate.
List of all delegates:
convert -list delegate
By default it outputs:
cdr => "uniconvertor" "%i" "%o.svg"; mv "%o.svg" "%o"
Install uniconvertor. For example, on Ubuntu it’s:
sudo apt-get install python-uniconvertor
Then run:
convert image.cdr -flatten -thumbnail '512x512' image.png
Or, with zoom cropping:
convert image.cdr -flatten -thumbnail '512x512^' -gravity center -crop 512x512+0+0 +repage image.png
And you’re done.
I convert to PNG here but you may use your own output format.
python-uniconvertor is part of inkscape.
It does not exist by itself.
Ubuntu/Mint recently removed all the old Python stuff, for Corel Draw I have to fire up the WinXP VM & Corel and export something Linux understands, usually PNG, a favourite
CDR & WMF files are pretty much dead to Linux, ImageMagick can still handle WMF though.
How to convert a JPEG image into SVG format using ImageMagick?
you'll need to use potrace and convert to a bitmap first.
$convert input.jpg output.ppm
$potrace -s output.ppm -o svgout.svg
Actually, with a complete installation of a recent version of ImageMagick it should be as easy as:
convert some.jpeg some.svg
Of course, ImageMagick cannot do it all by itself -- it uses delegates (helper programs) to handle SVG input or output. (This has been pointed out by other answers already.)
To see a (partial) list of all delegates (and their respective commands), run
convert -list delegate
To see the config file where all the delegate secrets hide, see
convert -list delegate | grep delegates.xml
To see a (partial) list of SVG handling delegates, run
convert -list delegate | grep -i svg
However, ImageMagick likes to put some of its external helper utilities into 'stealth' mode and doesn't necessarily reveal their presence when using above commands.
Just look into the delegates.xml file itself. On my system it's:
grep -i svg /opt/local/etc/ImageMagick/delegates.xml | grep -i --color stealth
<delegate decode="autotrace" stealth="True" \
command=""/opt/local/bin/convert" "%i" \
"pnm:%u"\n\
"/opt/local/bin/autotrace" \
-input-format pnm \
-output-format svg \
-output-file "%o" "%u""/>
<delegate decode="svg:decode" stealth="True" \
command=""/opt/local/bin/inkscape" "%s" \
--export-png="%s" \
--export-dpi="%s" \
--export-background="%s" \
--export-background-opacity="%s" \
> "%s" 2>&1"/>
As you may see, on my system the ImageMagick installation automatically uses (amongst others)...
...inkscape to convert SVG to PNG;
...autotrace to convert PNM to SVG;
Of course, one could argue the benefits of rather using autotrace directly -- but that would require to manually convert the whatever-input-format to PNM first. So for this preliminary step you'd probably use ImageMagick anyway...
You'll actually need some software or code to vectorize your image in between, as jpg is a raster format, while SVG is a vector format. I don't think imagemagick alone can do that for you.
