[[!template id=gitbranch branch=chrysn/imgforpdf author="[[chrysn]]"]]

|
|
when using the [[img plugin|plugins/img]] with an svg file, it is supposed to
|
|
convert it into a png for display in all browsers, and because the typical use
|
|
case is rendering small preview versions.
|
|
|
|
this currently doesn't work (at least with graphicsmagick-libmagick-dev-compat
|
|
1.3.18-1) due to the sequence imagemagick options are set, needs an extension
|
|
to work for pdfs (or any other imagemagick compatibile file) too, and should
|
|
have an additional parameter for page selection.
|
|
|
|
i've provided a series of [[!taglink patch]]es in the chrysn/imgforpdf [[git]]
|
|
branch.
|
|
|
|
i'd prefer to go a step further, and not only convert pdf and svg files to png,
|
|
but everything (with the possible exception of jpg files), as most other image
|
|
formats can't be displayed in a browser anyway -- but i didn't in this patch
|
|
series, as it would alter the file names of existing images, i don't know if
|
|
that needs special care or breaks something i don't use; this way, my patches
|
|
should be safe for inclusion.
