Hi,

Thank you for this great conversion utility.

I just like to ask if it is possible to pass a "target file name for the converted images" maybe in the next version?

example:

 function convert($filename); // without extension

       $image_path = $this->output_path."/".$filename."-%d.".$this->imageExtention;

       $fileArray[] = $filename."-$i.".$this->imageExtention;

Thanks in advance

@mablae @ahfeel @joshbmarshall guys can you please see this something we should implement ?

[mablae]

it would be a nice enhancement.

However it needs to be done in a BC secure way or implies new major Version with this approach. (New param would break BC)

Instead introducing an new parameter on convert method it could be done with a new setter method setFilenamePattern defaulting to current pattern.

It also needs to be checked to contain page parameter and then use sprintf to fill the page number later on. This way we could have 01-page.pdf, too.

Let me know what you think.

[joshbmarshall]

You'd definitely do it in the way you currently set resolution - by adding as a setter method. So the default would be page- and the function would let you override. No BC issues then as @mablae suggested. That should be fairly straightforward to implement and use.

Going on conventions of other software I doubt we need to have the page number configurable in the image file name.

Do you want a pull request?

[imalhasaranga]

I think I agree with @mablae too, it is the way to go! @joshbmarshall please go ahead if you have time

[joshbmarshall]

pull request has been submitted #14

[imalhasaranga]

Can anyone review @joshbmarshall 's code and merge it and create tag for release version 1.2.2, if all are busy I'll have a look at this tonight and probably merge it.. please make sure Tests are passing

[joshbmarshall]

I just added to the pull request, some PHPDoc and add method chaining to allow end users have cleaner code.

[imalhasaranga]

@joshbmarshall thanks for the great work!!!

[joshbmarshall]

@imalhasaranga there is one test not passing on the current master with Ghostscript v9.26 on linux - PDFLibTest::testImageToPdf

[imalhasaranga]

hmm! we should find the root case and fix it, I mean tests are the only way we know that nothing has broken.. probably this may be an issue existed from the begining and no one noticed it

[imalhasaranga]

sorry release should be v1.2.3

[joshbmarshall]

I have found the issue with the gs on linux, putting in a fix now will add to the pull request

[joshbmarshall]

Done, please check tests pass on windows. They all pass on Alpine Linux with PHP7.3.2

[vtsoft]

Thank you for adding this feature. I really needed this.
If it is okay to ask, when would it be the next release for version 1.2.3 be available?

Thanks again and more power to you guys who made this amazing conversion utility.

[mablae]

Since this is a new feature I would release as v1.3.0

[imalhasaranga]

@vtsoft v1.3.0 is released, @mablae agreed!! @joshbmarshall awesome work mate!!! cheers

@imalhasaranga, @mablae, @joshbmarshall,

Guys, Thanks for the quick release of the new version. It's really a great help.
So far, I'm starting to test/apply on the ff. platforms:
was able to test it in windows 10 pro, and it works like a charm.
no issue encountered so far.
will test it in CentOs 6.8.
but still looking for the right package and version to use on Ghostscript.

If not too much to ask,
I just like to know the link to which version of Ghostscript did you use in CentOs 6.8 during your testing.

Thanks again and more power to you guys.
I know for sure that this is the right place to ask.

[joshbmarshall]

@vtsoft I have not used CentOS 6 for over 4 years. Even CentOS 7 has too old a version. You just need gs version 9.16 or newer. I tested with v9.26. Maybe you can use the GPL linux binaries from https://ghostscript.com/download/gsdnld.html

[vtsoft]

@joshbmarshall Thank you for your help.
PDFlib using Ghostscript is now running in CentOs server.

and Thanks again all of you guys.
