Hi Roger,
Sure, you can get it.
And about the bitmap resolution, yes, it works but again,
as I did this job a couple of years ago, I have to dig in this project
for the details, which I can't right now.
Please, contact me off-list for more info.
Kind regards,
Thierry

Hi Thierry,
I too could use such a great external. We use PDFs extensively, and it has
been an ongoing need to access them with LiveCode (on Windows). Do you

Just to say that I can endorse Thierry's external, which I'm using in a
commercial product. I have not in fact tried it on Windows 8, but it should be
fine as it works in Windows 7 and XP - if Thierry says it will work with
Windows 8, I'm sure it will. It does exactly what I needed it to do, whi

This software can be controlled by LiveCode using shell commands to its
command-line interface.

There are also manual conversion options built-in to several image editing
programs, as well as online services.

In the past I have used pre-rolled command line utilities for that. I am
not sure if this is the specific one I use, but I used imagemagick before
to accomplish this as well.

That particular utility is cross platform i believe.

Sorry to bring this topic back up again but it seems there's no solution for
this.
Installing QuickTime on Windows does not display PDF's in a player object.
This is odd since this works wonderfully on a Mac.
Yrying to display PDF's in a browser object opens Adobe's Reader which, in
