Hi All,
I have the following script that works fine, it createds a png of the first page of a given PDF. However I also want to screenshot the first page of a .doc file. Can this be done with imagick as well?
$im = new imagick($pdf.'[0]');
$im->setImageFormat("png");
$getfilename = preg_replace("/\\.[^.\\s]{3,4}$/", "", $pdf);
$im->writeImage("store/".$getfilename.'.png');
$im->clear();
$im->destroy();
Thanks,
Daniel
Hi Daniel
My logic would suggest to create a PDF from the document file then apply your current process.
Have a look at this article
