Crash converting a JPG to a PCL

When
I'm trying to convert a jpg image to pcl image using the following command line,
"PATH\bin\convert.exe" -sample 454x157 -density 300x300 "PATH\images\02000001_CBerger.jpg" "PATH\images\pcl\02000001_CBerger_453x156_c.pcl"
I have a crash report:
I'm currently using the latest 6.4.3.7... and it worked with 6.3.6 version.
Do you have any idea?
regards
Thierry PARET

Can you post a URL to your image so we can download it and reproduce the problem. We tried a number of our images and they converted to PCL without complaint.

Let me know if you have any problems to get it?

We ran your command against the image you posted with ImageMagick 6.4.3-10, the latest release, and it completed without complaint. See if 6.4.3-10 works for you.

Oups Sorry I forgot to mention I was using the option "-type Bilevel"...
I need to use this setting to create black or white pcl for printers which are not supporting color.
the command is:
"PATH\bin\convert.exe" -type Bilevel -resize 454x157 -density 300x300 "PATH\images\02000001_CBerger.jpg" "PATH\images\pcl\02000001_CBerger_453x156_c.pcl"
Hope you will be able to reproduce now with the real command line.
Sorry again
regards,
Thierry

We can reproduce the problem you posted about and will have a fix for it in the Subversion trunk by sometime tomorrow. The patch will also be available in the next point release in a week or two. Thanks.
