Is it a 64-bit installation?  If so, Ghostscript sets the 32-bit registry
entries on a 64-bit machine. Windows 64 automatically redirects to a node
called HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/SOFTWARE/Wow6432Node. We had to export the 32-bit
Ghostscript registry entries, modify them like this:

      [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\GPL Ghostscript]

      [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\GPL Ghostscript\8.70]
      "GS_DLL"="C:\\Program Files\\gs\\gs8.70\\bin\\gsdll32.dll"
      "GS_LIB"="C:\\Program Files\\gs\\gs8.70\\lib;C:\\Program Files\\gs\\fonts"


and reimport them (just double click on the exported registry file). This
problem should not occur if you are using Windows 32-bit or if you install
a true 64-bit release of Ghostscript (which may or may not exist at this time).

ImageMagick is not the only package that has this problem, see
