If you use only one package a project is not needed. But if you use more then one package, without a project it is not possible to import the classes with use statements.

In general, it is recommended to use always a project to download your libraries. In an application normally there is more than one library needed.
Some PHP packages are not free to download and because of that hosted in private repositories. In this case some credentials are needed to access such packages. Please use the auth.json textarea to insert credentials, if a package is coming from a private repository. You can look here for more information.

  • Some hosting areas are not accessible by a terminal or SSH. Then it is not possible to use Composer.

Requirements

Installation

The package can be installed via composer and requires PHP 8.2+:

If you are using PHP < 8.2, use version 2.0 of this package.

Usage

Converting a PDF to an image is easy.

If the filename you pass to saveImage has the extensions jpg, jpeg, png, or webp the image will be saved in that format; otherwise the output format will be jpg.

Issues regarding Ghostscript

This package uses Ghostscript through Imagick. For this to work Ghostscripts gs command should be accessible from the PHP process. For the PHP CLI process (e.g. Laravel's asynchronous jobs, commands, etc...) this is usually already the case.

However for PHP on FPM (e.g. when running this package "in the browser") you might run into the following problem:

This can be fixed by adding the following line at the end of your php-fpm.conf file and restarting PHP FPM. If you're unsure where the php-fpm.conf file is located you can check phpinfo(). If you are using Laravel Valet the php-fpm.conf file will be located in the /usr/local/etc/php/YOUR-PHP-VERSION directory.

This will instruct PHP FPM to look for the gs binary in the right places.

Imagick Issues

If you receive an error with the message attempt to perform an operation not allowed by the security policy 'PDF', you may need to add the following line to your policy.xml file. This file is usually located in /etc/ImageMagick-[VERSION]/policy.xml, such as /etc/ImageMagick-7/policy.xml.
