Would you be able to point me in the right direction? We could build a custom image with some modified ghostscript params, I'm not really sure where this hook would happen.

I saw ghostscript being installed in this image and not the base one, but I couldn't find any reference to it in the code.

The thing is this feature was added by another contributor, I thought also it is using ghostscript but it seems no isn't used.

If you add rf_1 to refresh the image, in the response headers there's one called im-command which shows the full command used to generate the final image.

For the PDF case, it uses imagemagick (it could be imagemagick needs ghostscript to read from the PDF but I'm not sure and I need to debug more).

Since it is a imagemagick cmd, you can increase the quality (default 90) to 100 by adding q_100 option, also you can try to generate a different format such PNG with o_png option.

Was just looking around and saw this. It's been a while since I made that feature. Ghostscript was/is? indeed a requirement for imagemagick to handle PDF's and not used directly as mentioned.

Thank you @louisl for clarifying this, maybe we should add it to README file.

Thank you @sadok-f, the rf_1 flag really helped.

I was unable to use quality option for my purpose since ImageMagick uses it in the post-process part of the convert operation.

In the end I've used the -density option which does the trick when used correctly (before the input file).

I've pushed the changes here and updated the documentation as well. If it matches your coding standards I can send over a pull-request.

Again, thank you for your help.
