convert jpg to pdf problem

[muantariclo]

hi,
using Kubuntu 8.04 I'am trying to convert a jpg directory into a pdf file using the convert command

Code: Select all

convert *.jpg  allinone.pdf

on the terminal, but I keep getting

Code: Select all

convert: NoDecodeDelegateForThisImageFormat

for every image in the directory and

Code: Select all

convert: MissingAnImageFilename `allinone.pdf' @ convert.c/ConvertImageCommand/2772

at the end of the command line. I've also tried it running as root but I keep getting the same message. I've GhostScript installed and I'am guessing my problem has something to do with the paths ImageMagick uses to complete the task, but I don't know for sure nor how to fix it.

what should I do?

ImageMagick does not appear to be installed properly on your system or the paths have permission problems. Type

• convert -debug configure logo: logo.pnm

Look at the bugging output for where ImageMagick is looking for its configuration files and modules. Does the path exist? Are the permissions set properly for each part of the path?

thank you for answering so quickly. I've typed convert -debug configure logo: logo.pnm and the output says:

convert: UnableToOpenBlob `logo:': No such file or directory @ blob.c/OpenBlob/2489.
convert: MissingAnImageFilename `logo.pnm' @ convert.c/ConvertImageCommand/2772.

I don't know how to solve this

It is definatally not installed correctly. At a minimum the 'coders' are not installed.

I would remove the software completely, and re-install
