Ghostscript

Hello all,

I'm wanting automatically to create an image from the first page of a pdf file that I upload to my site. 'Convert' looks perfect, but when I try it, it fails to find Ghostscript.

Is Ghostscript not installed on the servers?

Best,
Darian

Re: Ghostscript

Unfortunately ghostscript is not installed on the servers. Postscript processing (which is ghostscript's primary function) is a bit too resource intensive for use on a shared server.
