For further clarification, here is how I got it to actually convert, but still
display the output to standard out:
$img = shell_exec("convert -resize 800x600 /tmp/file.pdf[0] jpg:-");
header("Content-type: image/jpg");
print($img);
Now you can dream up any sort of ideas with GET variables to define which
image you want.
Later,
