converting ppdf files to jpg files
 
I have just downloaded imagemagick and when I try to convert a pdf file to a jpg file. I get the message no such file or directory. The file I want to convert is in Home/Downloads

Make sure you are in the same directory as the file. For example, if the file is in /home/username/Downloads, enter:

Code:

cd /home/username/Downloads
into your terminal. The nrun something like:

Code:

convert filename.pdf filename.jpg
to convert the format.

or is this the Windows .exe's and wine

or Install using your package manager ?
