convert eps to gif with transparency gives jaggy result

[mwboy]

I have been using ImageMagick for many years to convert EPS to GIF files. This works fine in older versions of IM on my very old iMac. However, attempting the conversion in a modern version of IM on my newer machines consistently gives different and very ugly results. Any idea what the problem could be? Here is what I am doing:

Code: Select all

convert -colorspace rgb -transparent white -density 100% -interlace Plane infile.eps outfile.gif

infile:
https://www.dropbox.com/s/uqvq3s5rmwneduf/infile.eps

bad outfile:
https://www.dropbox.com/s/fooau4rxkey8v ... le-bad.gif

correct outfile:
https://www.dropbox.com/s/mx6bglk4eteck ... e-good.gif

Thanks,

Try this command:

• convert -colorspace rgb -transparent white -density 400 infile.eps -resize 25% -interlace Plane outfile.gif

Thanks, but I'm afraid that's even worse than before:

(FWIW, replacing outfile.gif with outfile.png in the original code gives a beautiful result)

The result from ...

Code: Select all

convert infile.eps -background White -flatten e.gif

... looks good to me. IM v6.8.8-0 on Windows 8.1.

Did you install the latest version of GhostScript on your newer machine?

Yes: GPL Ghostscript 9.10 (2013-08-30)

And I should mention that even the output of

Code: Select all

convert infile.eps outfile-test.gif 

is bad

what happens with

Code: Select all

convert -density 300 -colorspace sRGB infile.eps outfile-test.gif

That output looks fine.
