    Hi all

    i'm new in this forum, i work on Ibm i (As400), and i hope that some some can help me.

    This is my problme : as i would need to use ImageMagick to convert PDF to JPG, i installed ImageMagick from Scott Klement Link http://www.scottklement.com/imagemagick/ ;

    the imagemagik's convert command, needs also Ghostscript. Now i have problem on installing Ghostscript as:

    when i try to run GMAKE (downlaoded froom https://www.ghostscript.com/download/gsdnld.html and after ./configure), i receive this error :

    "/usr/include/unistd.h:198:16: error: conflicting types for 'lseek64'

    extern off64_t lseek64(int, off64_t, int);

    /usr/include/unistd.h:196:14: note: previous declaration of 'lseek64' was here extern off_t lseek(int, off_t, int);.."

    i also tried to download it from http://yips.idevcloud.com/wiki/index.php/Pase/Pdf2PsOutq , but when i try to run
    " convert mydoc.pdf mydoc.jpg" to convert from PDF to JPG i reveice this
    errors :
    exec():0509-036The gs program could not be loaded due to the following
    mistakes:
    0509-150 The dependent module libpng.a (libpng.so.2) was not loaded.
    0509-022 Unable to load the libpng.a module (libpng.so.2).
    0509-026System error: A file or directory in the path name does not exist.
    convert: Postscript delegate failed mydoc.pdf

    Can some help me to install Ghostscript on my IBM i (As400) V7.2 ?

    Thanks in advance
