a. Manual:

1) press <Win+R>, type "cmd" and press <Enter> to open the DOS command window.

2) change current path to isimSoftware PDF to JPG's program folder by using "cd" command (may need to change current drive first). Right-click isimSoftware PDF to JPG's shortcut icon and click "Properties" menu item, you will find the path in [Start in] field.

3) Now you can simply type "ptj -i:..." to use isimSoftware PDF to JPG' CLI.

b. Use isimSoftware PDF to JPG's CLI in Your Own Application/Script/BAT on Your Licensed PCs:

First, need to install isimSoftware PDF to JPG on your licensed PCs, and then simply use the Shell function (or other similar functions) to do it.

This is VB.NET sample code (in VB.NET, two " indicate one actual "), FYI:

Shell("""C:\Program Files\isimSoftware\isimSoftware PDF to JPG\isimSoftware PDF to JPG"" ""-i:H:\Books\C 11 D.pdf"" -o:H:\", AppWinStyle.NormalFocus)

Shell("""C:\Program Files\isimSoftware\isimSoftware PDF to JPG\isimSoftware PDF to JPG"" -i:H:\Books\C11D.pdf -o:H:\", AppWinStyle.NormalFocus)

c. Deploy isimSoftware PDF to JPG's CLI with Your Application/Script/BAT Outside the Scope of Your Licensed PCs:

In this case, do NOT need to install isimSoftware PDF to JPG on the PCs that you want to deploy to. And you should purchase isimSoftware PDF to JPG Redistributable CLI, click here to know more details.

Once bought, just deploy the received files under your application or any other place as you need, and then you will have the ability to use it like this (VB.NET code):

Shell("D:\MyApp\isimSoftware PDF to JPG\isimSoftware PDF to JPG -i:H:\Books\C11D.pdf -o:H:\", AppWinStyle.NormalFocus)

a. Very easy to use, even only need to specify a PDF to convert.

b. Please use space to separate each arguments, if the full path of isimSoftware PDF to JPG.exe or any argument's value has the spaces, you must use "" to delimit it (include argument name). E.g. "-i:F:\test folder\test 1.pdf"

c. Please use : to separate argument name and value, and there is no space on the left and right of the colon. E.g. -o:D:\test

d. If you passed twice or more for a same argument, isimSoftware PDF to JPG only uses the last passed value. E.g. isimSoftware PDF to JPG -i:F:\test.pdf -i:F:\test1.pdf, isimSoftware PDF to JPG will convert F:\test1.pdf.

e. CLI Supports multi-language also, even in the log file.

f. Note that the permission problem on Vista+ OS, in order to avoid UAC prompt, we recommend you use the general paths to store input PDFs, output images and logs, do not use the system drive as best.

g. How to convert more than one PDFs or convert in a folder? Just use the "for" or other loops in your programming language.

"E:\Program Files\isimSoftware\isimSoftware PDF to JPG\isimSoftware PDF to JPG" -i:f:\test.pdf

"E:\Program Files\isimSoftware\isimSoftware PDF to JPG\isimSoftware PDF to JPG" -i:f:\test.pdf -o:f:\test -f:PNG

"E:\Program Files\isimSoftware\isimSoftware PDF to JPG\isimSoftware PDF to JPG" -i:f:\test.pdf -o:f:\test -l:f:\test.log -f:PNG -r:100 -t:r90 -c:WB -p:2-25 -w:testd
