Hello everyone
I’m trying to integrate the ghostscript dll into my project. I’ve followed the instruction, copying the dll file from ghostscript install path and put it under “Assets/Plugins” in my project folder(please be noted that I’m using a 64-bits version of ghostscript, that makes the dll as “gsdll64.dll”). However when I play my scene, it always give a “DllNotFoundException”. The following is the sample code I found on the Internet(and I’m currently using it) of including the dll file.
using UnityEngine;
using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Text;
using System.Runtime.InteropServices;
using System.Collections;
/**
Convert PDF to Image Format(JPEG) using Ghostscript API
convert a pdf to jpeg using ghostscript command line:
gswin32c -q -dQUIET -dPARANOIDSAFER -dBATCH -dNOPAUSE -dNOPROMPT -dMaxBitmap=500000000 -dFirstPage=1 -dAlignToPixels=0 -dGridFitTT=0 -sDEVICE=jpeg -dTextAlphaBits=4 -dGraphicsAlphaBits=4 -r100x100 -sOutputFile=output.jpg test.pdf

and: http://www.codeproject.com/KB/cs/GhostScriptUseWithCSharp.aspx
Note:copy gsdll32.dll to system32 directory before using this ghostscript wrapper.

I’m don’t know what am I missing and have been stuck here for a few days, so any idea or help would be greatly appreciated.
