Hi EvergBody,

i wonder if a pdf manager module exists ? or if it's possible to develop it ?
because the Source of Gallery is very stong, and well done, so i'd like to keep it to manage others documents, like pdf, or office documents (doc;xls...) .

Do you think IT'S POSSIBLE ?

Thanks[b]

You don't need a new module for adding .pdf files. Just add them.
If your image toolkit suports making thumbnails for .pdf files you will get thumbs, if not; then you can add your own.

The GD toolkit does not support .pdf files. IM does:

I believe that IM needs ghostscript then you also get PDF support with ImageMagick.

Thanks for your help ;)
But tell me, is there a way to install IM, without the hosting provider, because i have to pay a supplement.
maybe if i upload IM in the gallery's directory, can i install it by this way ?

Thanks

If you don't have shell access to your server, you will have to ask your host to do it for you.

FAQ: I am having trouble configuring a graphics toolkit (ImageMagick, NetPBM or ffmpeg). Help?
