What pixel dimensions do you want for your Tiff and what dpi? With vector images, the larger you set the density before reading the pdf, the larger will be the pixel dimensions of your converted tiff. For high quality, set the density before reading larger than you want, then resize to the pixel size you want (thus doing supersampling) and then set the density afterwards to what density you want. convert -density X input.pdf -resize ... -density Y result.tiff > > Your "-resize 300%" is making the resulting image 3x the size. > Remove that and you'll have the appropriate image. > >Now, the width and length become the same between the tiff files >generated by convert and Acrobat.
