The scanner I am dealing with produces 600DPI PDF files.  Not a big

How on earth do I convert the PDF file to TIFF/PNG/something useful to
GIMP?

Ghostscript ?

 gs -q -dNOPAUSE -sDEVICE=tiff24nc -r600x600 -sOutputFile=test.tif --
./testpage.pdf

Produces a 4958x7017 file for a US letter test page, which is not quite
the 5100x6600 expected, but lots of dots (and quite a big file - 100MB).

Still downsamples.

Is there anywhere one the KPLUG website I could toss the file onto? I'd like to let you folks take a look at it rather than my vague comments back and forth.
