On #ghostscript, Robin_Watts suggested using MuPDF for thumbnailing: <Robin_Watts> mupdf is optimised for screen output, so may be a better bet for what you need. [10:02]
For reference: http://www.mupdf.com/ is a little light on info, but code is under AGPL license. Default build appears to create a command-line app 'mudraw' as well as the GUI viewer: $ ./build/debug/mudraw usage: mudraw [options] input [pages] -o - output filename (%d for page number) -F - output format (if no -F, -o will be examined) supported formats: pgm, ppm, pam, png, pbm, tga -p - password -r - resolution in dpi (default: 72) -w - width (in pixels) (maximum width if -r is specified) -h - height (in pixels) (maximum height if -r is specified) -f - fit width and/or height exactly (ignore aspect) -c - colorspace {mono,gray,grayalpha,rgb,rgba} -b - number of bits of antialiasing (0 to 8) -B - maximum bandheight (pgm, ppm, pam output only) -g render in grayscale -m show timing information -M show memory use summary -t show text (-tt for xml, -ttt for more verbose xml) -x show display list -d disable use of display list -5 show md5 checksums -R - rotate clockwise by given number of degrees -G - gamma correct output -I invert output -l print outline -j - Output mujstest file -i ignore errors and continue with the next file pages comma separated list of ranges Sounds like it wouldn't be hard to support as a replacement or supplement to gs.
