Hi, I am working on a project where I want to convert the pdf file pages into png images then I am compressing the images using the imagemin with imageminpngquant plugin. the process is working fine when I am using the following command line code from the node js.
pdfConvert = spawn('java', [
'-jar',
`${pdfBoxPath}`,
'PDFToImage',
'-dpi',
dpi,
'-imageType',
'png',
'-outputPrefix',
`${rawPdfDir}/page-`,
`./${pdfFilePath}`,
]);
but when I want to convert only specfic pages I am using the following code and the image is also getting converted but while compressing it is showing cannot decode image for some images.
for (let i = 0; i < requiredPages.length; i++) {
// split the page ranges
const range = requiredPages[i].trim().split('-');
const startPage = range[0];
const endPage = range[1] ? range[1] : range[0];
// console.log(`range -> ${range}`);
// console.log(`requiredPages -> ${requiredPages[i]}`);
pdfConvert = spawn('java', [
'-jar',
`${pdfBoxPath}`,
'PDFToImage',
'-dpi',
dpi,
'-imageType',
'png',
'-outputPrefix',
`${rawPdfDir}/page-`,
`./${pdfFilePath}`,
`-startPage`,
`${startPage}`,
`-endPage`,
`${endPage}`
]);
}
I am using the loop in this case.
