Hello,

I found that I had to comment the following line inside
/etc/ImageMagick-6/policy.xml to make image->PDF conversion work again:

<policy domain="coder" rights="none" pattern="PDF" />

Is this because of a ghostscript vulnerability? Could this please be
re-enabled as soon as that issue is fixed, and I also suggest
mentioning it in the NEWS file for imagemagick. I guess the possible
risk of attack is very different between web servers and untrusted
input, and desktop users?

Thank you,
Viktor.
