The correct command would be convert -depth 8 $1 pdf:$2
Interesting, but wrong (I believe ;-)
No, that is the right command for convert. Of course one can't use it for ConvertDefault.sh.
The "pdf:" prefix is passd to convertDefault.sh as part of $2.
It should be, but when converting to pdf, ghostscript's command line appear, as if the passed command was
convert -depth 8 infile outfile
I don't know why.
(btw. you can omit the parameter -depth 8)
In your personal copy. Not in the version that ships with LyX. Other's have other problems.
Of course you are right, I spoke only about Windows systems. Omitting the parameter on Win2000 and WinXP with ImageMagick Q8 and Q16 gave no problem.
