        $imgExt = new Imagick();

        $imgExt->readImage(public_path('storage/uploads/test.pdf'));

       $imgExt->writeImages(public_path('storage/uploads/pdf_image_doc.jpg'), false);

Here is the line of code:

if ($request->has('pdf_file')) 
        {
            $getPdfFile = $request->file('pdf_file');

            $originalname = $getPdfFile->getClientOriginalName();

            $path = $getPdfFile->storeAs('PdfToJpg', $originalname);
        }


        $storagePath = storage_path('app/PdfToJpg/' . $originalname);

         $imagick = new Imagick();

        $imagick->setResolution(600, 600);

        $imagick->readImage($storagePath);

        $imagick->writeImage(storage_path('app/PdfToJpg/download.jpeg'));

And,

C:\Program Files\gs\gs10.00.0\bin

and rename gswin64.exe to gs.exe And add Environment variables

C:\Program Files\gs\gs10.00.0\bin

I run in php 7.4, Ghost script 10.0 and Imagick ImageMagick-7.1.0-Q16 and laravel 7* Thank you.

Imagick has a release candidate that fixes this error. We were experiencing the same issue after upgrading to Laravel 8.

The new release candidate was posted on 11/10/2021 (6 days after this post). https://windows.php.net/downloads/pecl/releases/imagick/3.6.0rc1/
