I think that this must be simple (if it is possible which I think it must be
from things I have found on various web sites).

I want to use Image:Magick to convert a pdf file to jpg with a better resolution than the standard 72 pixels per inch.
I have tried using (in spite of the fact that the book Graphics for Programming with Perl
by Verbruggen indicates you cannot do this) 
$rc = $img->Set(density => '200');
$rc = $img->Read($pdf_file_full);

[download]

This does alter the Pixels per Inch but the picture is worse than when using the standard resolution value.
I have also tried using the Set after reading the image.
This does alter the resolution but the image is exactly the same as with the standard resolution setting.

Is there a Monk who knows how to do this?
