It would appear that your version of IM does not have Ghostscript installed.

Please identify your version of IM and platform.

Then run the following IM command

convert -list configure

and look at the line starting with DELEGATES. What does it list? If gs or gslib is not included, then Ghostscript was either not installed or not installed successfully.
