imagemagick convert fails when path too long #1

Open zgarnog opened 8 years ago

zgarnog commented 8 years ago

If path is too long, imagemagick convert command exits but does not give any obvious error message.

This causes jpg2pdf.pl to exit with an error, but the error is not obvious.

A workaround is to manually shorten the path length, by moving the directory closer to the root of the drive (for example under C:/ )

A fix would be to automatically prevent the paths from being too long in the first place, or at least to give an error when the path is too long, so that the cause of the problem is obvious.

I've updated the README about this.
