pdf to image in php

You can use the Imagick extension to convert a PDF to an image in PHP. Here is an example code snippet:

main.php
// Create new Imagick object
$image = new \Imagick();

// Read the PDF file
$image->readImage('document.pdf');

// Convert PDF to image
$image->setImageFormat('png');

// Save the converted image
$image->writeImage('document.png');

// Clear resources
$image->clear();
$image->destroy();

In the above example, we first create a new Imagick object. Then we read the PDF file using the readImage method. Next, we set the image format to PNG using the setImageFormat method. Finally, we write the converted image to a file using the writeImage method, and clear and destroy the Imagick resources to free up memory.

Note that you may need to install the Imagick extension on your server, and potentially install additional software like GhostScript for PDF handling.
