I was the one who posted the problem that ImageMagick did not convert pdf to eps nicely. I tried to modify delegates.xml as you suggested, but it seems to me that the modification does not affect ImageMagick: for instance, I deleted the entry about converting pdf to eps, but the "convert" command did not complain about not finding a delegate.
However, from delegate.xml I find that I don't really need ImageMagick to convert pdf to eps. I just copy the gs command in the delegate entry to a shell script, and it works. Thanks for the hint!
