# ProcessPDFImageCreator

ProcessWire module to automatically generate images from all the pages of an uploaded PDF

## Usage

Create an multiple images field called "pdf_images"

Create a files field called "document_pdf"

When you upload a PDF to a page with a template that contains both these fields and save the page, an image will be created and stored for each page of the PDF.

WARNING: the generation process can be quite slow - up to a few minutes if the PDF has 10s to 100s of pages.

## How to install

Your server must have imagemagick, ghostscript, and the imagick pecl extension installed

Download and place the module folder named "ProcessPDFImageCreator" in: /site/modules/

In the admin control panel, go to Modules. At the bottom of the screen, click the "Check for New Modules" button.

Now scroll to the ProcessPDFImageCreator module and click "Install".

## ToDo

Add a spinner to indicate that the images are being generated, or hook into the file upload process and start the image generation immediately after upload has completed and show a new bar with the progress of image generation.
