I am trying to get imagemagick convert a PS file to a PNG file and use the font(s) specified in the PS file. Here is the file (test.ps):

%!PS-Adobe-3.0
1 0 0 setrgbcolor
/Futura-CondensedBold findfont 100 scalefont setfont
50 50 moveto
(abc) show
showpage

This file, on my Win XP PC, appears with the correct font in GSview. I can also use the command line convert command successfully:

   convert -background lightblue -fill white -font Futura-CondensedBold -pointsize 72 label:abc test.png
   
The above command shows 'abc' in Futura-CondensedBold. The font appears in the list generated by "convert -list type":

Path: C:\Program Files\ImageMagick-6.3.5-Q16\config\type.xml
Futura-CondensedBold         Futura        Normal  Normal          400

But test.ps, if converted to a PNG file, displays 'abc' in Arial.
