For over 4 years, I have been successfully using the Askubuntu method:

How can I export a PDF from GIMP with each layer on a new page

on LTS 14.04 to export an mng file and then convert to pdf. However, as of sometime between Sep. 19 and Oct. 26, the convert part no longer work and produces an error message that I do not understand:

drrm@drrmlinux2:~/Downloads$ convert vt-02017_markup.mng vt-02017_markup.pdf

convert.im6: not authorized `vt-02017_markup.pdf' @ error/constitute.c/WriteImage/1072.

Can anyone help?

I find an anser at the step 4 of this tutorial https://www.alanreed.org/2019/07/11/edit-and-export-multi-page-pdfs-with-gimp-2019/
It look be cause by a security setting, to disable it rename the file /etc/ImageMagick-6/policy.xml by /etc/ImageMagick-6/policy.xmlout for exemple.
Then you can convert your file.
