        <pre>Hi,

The version is:

$ /Applications/calibre.app/Contents/Frameworks/pdftoppm -v                    
                                      [21:14:03]
pdftoppm version 0.22.4

I have no idea what command calibre is using but the command I just tried:


/Applications/calibre.app/Contents/Frameworks/pdftoppm  -png
~/Downloads/sample.pdf 

was using around 2GB+ before I killed it because everything crawled to a halt.
Mem usage ramps up quickly too.. within few seconds it's using over 2GB.

Thanks for any insight.

Mel</pre>
