Yes, that works!

This flattening was done by default in previous versions? - in other words will
I obtain identical results with Imagemagick <=6.3.5 when I change the script code from
"convert infile.eps infile.ppm" to "convert infile.eps -flatten infile.ppm" ?
The point is to have a generally working script independent on Imagemagick version...

Thanks for all your answers,
Pavel
