img2pdf: Convert only the first frame of a multi-frame image to PDF.
$ img2pdf ${filename-gif} --first-frame-only --output ${filename-pdf}
try on your machine

This command is used to convert an image file (in GIF format) to a PDF file.

Here is a breakdown of the command:

  • img2pdf is the name of the command or program that performs the image to PDF conversion.

  • ${filename-gif} is a placeholder for the name of the input GIF image file. The actual file name should be provided when running the command. For example, if the GIF file is called "image.gif", you would replace ${filename-gif} with "image.gif".

  • --first-frame-only is an option or flag that specifies that only the first frame of the GIF file should be used for the conversion. GIF files can contain multiple frames, similar to an animation, but this flag ensures that only the first frame is converted.

  • --output is another option or flag that specifies the output file name or location. In this case, ${filename-pdf} is a placeholder for the name of the output PDF file. You would replace ${filename-pdf} with the desired name of the resulting PDF file. For example, if you want the PDF file to be named "image.pdf", you would replace ${filename-pdf} with "image.pdf".

So, when running this command with the appropriate file names, it will convert the specified GIF file to a PDF file, using only the first frame of the GIF.
