Package: imagemagick
Version: 6:6.0.6.2-2.4
Severity: normal
File: /usr/bin/convert


When one creates a .png file via "import":

import foo.png

(then click on a window),
and then converts to .pdf:

convert foo.png foo.pdf

and then display the .pdf file, you find that the
supposed copy is a lot smaller than the original.
About half-size, in fact.      If I inspect the .png
file with Gimp, it claims to have the correct number of
pixels per inch, so the fault presumably lies with
convert.

If I run convert as

convert -density 36x36 foo.png foo.pdf

then the resulting image is about the right size.
(My screen has 72 pixels per inch.)

The problem is specific to .png, because if I do
import bar.jpg
convert bar.jpg bar.pdf
xpdf bar.pdf

then the final image is correctly sized.
