Problems with colorspace and conversion with EPS

[PCPete]

I am trying to accept an EPS file for upload. After upload, it should create a low resoltuion RGB JPG of the EPS file, and save it for a web preview of the file for the end user. It should also create a CMYK color profile for the original EPS and save the EPS a different server. This code works on every image format type I supply except EPS, suggestions?

Code: Select all

colorspace = objIM.identify("-format", "%r", imagePath

^ I use that to get my colorspace but for EPS files, it generates errors of

ImageMagickObject.MagickImage.1 error '80041771'

identity: 415: Postscript delegate failed `C:/WINDOWS/TEMP/magick-uITE6Hyi': No such file or directory: identity: 350: \\server\website\directory\images\bmc logo.eps: invalid TIFF directory; tags are not sorted in ascending order. `TIFFReadDirectory':

EDIT: One more thing, the TIFF error is puzzling to me because I have not supplied a TIFF file to it, so far just EPS.

I am using COM object with ASP. Please advise.

thanks,

-Pete

Your EPS images may in fact be in the EPT format which embeds both a EPS image and TIFF image and your TIFF image is not in a format that the TIFF delegate library can grok. Post a URL to a couple of your EPT images that fail for you so we can download and inspect them for problems.

I will talk to out IT as to where I can place these for your perusal, would this also then cause it to fail when attempting to read the colorspace I assume.

Okay I've sent a PM to you with the FTP information enclosed. Thanks again. FWIW I have updated to the 2/23/08 release as well.

Final update until I hear back or find a solution....

I decided to try it strait from the command line and it works?! It correctly returned just the colorspace as I asked. When done from asp and com object, it has problems with the delegate... Maybe a permissions problem or something with running GhostScript by chance? I ran a -convert -list delegate and it does in fact have the correct path to my GS folder and exe.... I am stumped!

We identified your image without complaint. Our test was under Windows XP using Ghostscript 8.43 and ImageMagikc 6.3.9. It reported this:

Try it using the COM object? I can use the command line but it fails when using asp + com object.

-thanks!

We're Unix/Linux developers and the COM object was a contributed project. You'll need to provide a script and brief instructions how to use it before we can test your EPT image from a COM object.
