ImageMagick or GhostScript: convert a multi-page TIFF to a multi-page PDF

ghostscriptimagemagickpdftiff

I need to convert a multi-page TIFF to a multi-page PDF. I have access to ImageMagick and GhostScript (in *nix environment). How do I do this? Thanks.

UPDATE:

It turns out that my test file was wrong (it didn't have multiple pages), which made me think my command was wrong. This seems to work for me: convert input.tif output.pdf

Best Answer

convert multipage.tiff -density 300x300 -compress jpeg multipage.pdf

This should work, though there can be some issues.

Linux – Merge / convert multiple PDF files into one PDF

Considering that pdfunite is part of poppler it has a higher chance to be installed, usage is also simpler than pdftk:

pdfunite in-1.pdf in-2.pdf in-n.pdf out.pdf

Just make sure you remember to provide out.pdf, or else it will overwrite the last file in your command

ImageMagick is converting only the first page of the pdf

You can specify which page to convert by putting a number in [] after the filename:

convert D:\test\sample.pdf[7] D:\test\pages\page-7.jpg

It should have, however, converted all pages to individual images with your command.
