your command works fine for me with IM 6.8.6.5 Q16 Mac OSX using your image

It works for me (v6.8.6-0 on Windows 7) in the sense that I can convert it PDF then from the PDF to PNG and it looks the same (in Microsoft Photo Viewer).

However, Adode Reader X (v10.1.7) shows a blank white page, 32 inches wide by 200 inches high. I suspect this software can't cope with such a large image.

Actually the PDF file I created above opened fine in Mac Preview. But when I tried to open it in Adobe Reader, like user snibgo, all I got was a white page also.

It is very odd. When I open Adobe Reader and went to the Preferences and set the Reading Preferences for Page vs Document to Read the Entire Document (rather than visible pages), it displayed fine. But I cannot repeat that.
