ImageMagick won't show Ghostscipt as delegate

votes

Was trying to get ImageMagick to talk to Ghostscript using MacPorts in OSX Lion but it wouldn't have it. Used to have it working fine under Snow Leopard but something went amiss during Migration assistant.

Anyhow, have unstalled all of Mac Ports and am now trying using Homebrew

Have installed Homebrew, installed ImageMagick and then ghostscript. Imagemagick is working fine (using a php image script and MAMP) but Ghostscript is not converting PDF's to jpgs. I can see than 'gs' is not listed as a delegate of Imagemagick.

Here are some relevant Terminal dumps:

convert -list delegate

Path: /usr/local/Cellar/imagemagick/6.7.7-6/etc/ImageMagick/delegates.xml

How do I force Ghostscript to be seen as a delegate by ImageMagick?

Well, in your listing coming from convert -list delegate there are the following six lines:

eps<=>ps     "gs" -q -dQUIET -dSAFER -dBATCH -dNOPAUSE -dNOPROMPT -dMaxBitmap=500000000 -dAlignToPixels=0 -dGridFitTT=2 "-sDEVICE=pswrite" "-sOutputFile=%o" "-f%i"
eps<=>pdf    "gs" -q -dQUIET -dSAFER -dBATCH -dNOPAUSE -dNOPROMPT -dMaxBitmap=500000000 "-sDEVICE=pdfwrite" "-sOutputFile=%o" "-f%i"
pdf<=>eps    "gs" -q -dQUIET -dSAFER -dBATCH -dNOPAUSE -dNOPROMPT -dMaxBitmap=500000000 -dAlignToPixels=0 -dGridFitTT=2 "-sDEVICE=epswrite" "-sOutputFile=%o" "-f%i"
pdf<=>ps     "gs" -q -dQUIET -dSAFER -dBATCH -dNOPAUSE -dNOPROMPT -dMaxBitmap=500000000 -dAlignToPixels=0 -dGridFitTT=2 "-sDEVICE=pswrite" "-sOutputFile=%o" "-f%i"
 ps<=>eps    "gs" -q -dQUIET -dSAFER -dBATCH -dNOPAUSE -dNOPROMPT -dMaxBitmap=500000000 -dAlignToPixels=0 -dGridFitTT=2 "-sDEVICE=epswrite" "-sOutputFile=%o" "-f%i"
 ps<=>pdf    "gs" -q -dQUIET -dSAFER -dBATCH -dNOPAUSE -dNOPROMPT -dMaxBitmap=500000000 -dAlignToPixels=0 -dGridFitTT=2 "-sDEVICE=pdfwrite" "-sOutputFile=%o" "-f%i"

They all do mention "gs"...

However, you say you first installed ImageMagick and only then Ghostscript.

So ImageMagick could not find any Ghostscript during compile time, that's why it doesn't appear in convert -list configure | grep DELEG....

You should try and install in reverse order: first Ghostscript, then ImageMagick....

tl;dr

For latecomers, this is the short version of @Kurt Pfeifle's answer + comment section. Just run

brew update \
 && brew reinstall ghostscript \
 && brew reinstall imagemagick --with-ghostscript

Do you have multiple installations of ImageMagick's convert on your system (maybe because your MacPorts installation wasn't cleanly removed)? To find out, run this commandline (which uses Spotlight search):

mdfind convert 2>&1 | grep convert

Update your question with the full info coming from these commands:

which convert
convert -list configure
convert -version
otool -L $(which convert)
which gsx
which gsc
which gs
gs -version
otool -L $(which gs)
