Hi..
I am using alfresco enterprise 3.3.
I want to know how can i transform a pdf document into image files.
I have tried it using rule.But problem which i am facing is when i upload a pdf files only i image file gets created with only front page of pdf document. For example if i upload a pdf file of 10 pages then 10 image file should be created.

Can anyone help me on this issue..

you can create custom transformer to do things as you like.

Hi..
Thanks for the reply…
I visited the  link which you had give,but i think the wiki is incomplete. Will it work with Alfresco enterprise 3.3??? What all changes i need to make ,can you please explain in detail…

Is there any other alternative other than creating custom transformer????

read text carfuly and you will see that you will find information you need.
I guess do to list would be:
find a way to extract image from pdf in java.
then create tranformer to do this, you can create even console java application and run it from java, or you can use logic from the page that I have given to you, find "Extracting text from PowerPoint documents" hire you have pdf to text, so work it out to convert to images Smiley Happy.
