Good command-use this instead: pdftoppm -jpeg -r 300 input.pdf output Then, I remembered there was another tool I use and wrote about, so I googled " linux convert pdf to jpg Gabriel Staples", clicked the first hit, and scrolled down to my answer. I still like pdftoppm, below, much better, however.) See also my comment here, and my comments under this answer here. 2022: here is the fix for imagemagick so convert will work. I just googled how to convert a PDF to a JPEG today, found this answer, and tried convert, and it doesn't work at all for me:īroken command (doesn't work for me): $ convert in.pdf out.jpgĬonvert-im6.q16: not authorized `in.pdf' error/constitute.c/ReadImage/412.Ĭonvert-im6.q16: no images defined `out.jpg' error/convert.c/ConvertImageCommand/3258. The use of an equal sign ( =) wipes all previous permissions for that category.For the life of me, over the last 5 years, I cannot get imagemagick to work consistently (if at all) for me, and I don't know why people continually recommend it again and again. The u flag sets the permissions for the file owner, g refers to the user group, while o refers to all other users. To remove all existing permissions, set read and write access for the user while allowing read access for all other users, type: chmod u=rw,g=r,o=r file.txt To set file permissions, you’ll use the chmodcommand at the terminal. RELATED: How macOS Catalina's New Security Features Work Setting File Permissions This is related in part to new security features introduced in macOS Catalina, although file access control lists (ACLs) have been a Mac feature since macOS X 10.4 Tiger back in 2005. If the final character is an at sign ( then it signifies that the file or folder has extended file attributes relating to security, giving certain apps (like Finder) persistent file access. rwx means the file can be read, written, and executed.r-x means the file can be read and executed, but not written to.rw- would mean the file can be read and written to, but the file isn’t executable.r- would mean the file can be read, but not written to, and the file isn’t executable.- would mean no read or write access, and the file isn’t executable.These levels are always shown in that order, so for instance: You’ll see letters here, too, such as r (read), w (write), and x (execute). The first group shows the access levels for the file/folder owner (1), the middle group shows group permissions (2), and the final three shows permissions for any other users (3). The next nine characters are split into groups of three.
