I need to convert .pdf file to .jpeg file to do OCR of the text. I found this code:
from pdf2image import convert_from_path
pages = convert_from_path('img732.pdf', 500)
for page in pages:
page.save('out.jpg', 'JPEG')
And I got this error:
Traceback (most recent call last):

I have the .pdf file in the same directory of .py file. Where's the problem?
I guess this problem is library specific. However you can use this solution for run successfully.
