Fix ImageMagick 6 not authorized reading PDF
ImageMagick uses policy.xml
to set read/write permissions by file format.
When read permissions are disabled for a format such as PDF, ImageMagick operations might fail like:
convert-im6.q16: not authorized
convert-im6.q16: DistributedPixelCache ‘127.0.0.1’
Fix: find policy.xml
location at the top of
magick -list policy
for example on Linux it might be at /etc/ImageMagick-*/policy.xml
Edit this policy.xml
to have a line like:
<policy domain="coder" rights="read" pattern="PDF" />
