I'm trying to convert a tiff image to a pdf image. The tiff file is a tiffG4
It look okej but the pdf is not redable in adobe acrobat reader.
Do i do anny thing wrong ??

MagickWandGenesis();

wand = NewMagickWand();
status = MagickReadImage(wand,"c:\\1.tif");
status = MagickSetImageFormat(wand, "PDF" );
MagickGetImageBlob(wand,&ImageLen);

memcpy(*Image,FilePonter,ImageLen);
DestroyMagickWand( wand );
MagickWandTerminus();

infd = open("c:\\1.pdf", O_RDWR | O_CREAT);
write(infd,Image,ImageLen);
close(infd);

This snippet reads an image in the TIFF format, converts it to PDF as an inline blob, and writes the result to disk:

• wand = NewMagickWand();
  status = MagickReadImage(wand,"1.tif");
  status = MagickSetImageFormat(wand, "PDF" );
  blob = MagickGetImageBlob(wand,&length);
  
  DestroyMagickWand( wand );
  MagickWandTerminus();
  
  infd = open("1.pdf", O_RDWR | O_CREAT, 0644);
  write(infd,blob,length);
  close(infd);

I copy your code and test it on my image. Iget one pdf but is not okej to display in acrobar reader.
I run the convert program on it, then it work ok.

My image is tiff tiffG4 black&white ( no grayscale or collor )

I test this under windows.
Version: ImageMagick 6.3.7 12/25/07 Q8

Can you post a URL to your image, 1.tif? We converted a G4 TIFF image with the MagickWand program and the convert command and both produced a valid PDF image. We're using ImageMagick 6.3.7-9.

Can i send it by mejl ?

I have 2 test images on a webserver
http://ropet.mine.nu/Images/
001.TIF
002.TIF

thanks for all help i can get

We tried your script with 001.TIF and 002.TIF and create 001.PDF and 002.PDF respectively and they both displayed without complaint with Adobe Acrobat 8.0. We're using ImageMagick 6.3.7-9.

This is my test program i get a pdf fil thet is blank ( white )

Download http://www.virginimage.org/download/1.pdf, created with your code snippet.
