Hello. I have a php-gd generated png image that I wish to convert to
TIFF in 72x72dpi

The PNG image should be 72x72dpi but there are no way to specify
resolution in php-gd. I believe the png image generated doesn't actually
have resolution information in it.

$ covert result.png result.tiff

would generate a tiff image. Open this image with envince, print it,
result is an empty (white) page being printed. Open this image with
gimp, gimp gives "Warning: resolution units meaningless" but still opens
the image. Save it in gimp, re-open in envince, print result is
expected, 72dpi OKay. It looks like the generated TIFF 'has wrong
resolution information' and GIMP fixed it by attaching default
resolution '72x72dpi' (GIMP default is 72x72), thus the file saved from
GIMP works.

I tried these commands, the result is the same (same GIMP error message
and same empty (white) page being printed by evince):

$ convert -density 72 /tmp/dd.png /tmp/dd.tiff
$ convert -density 72 /tmp/dd.png -resample 72x72 /tmp/dd.tiff
$ convert /tmp/dd.png -resample 72x72 /tmp/dd.tiff
$ convert /tmp/dd.png /tmp/dd.tiff

Any hint on how to generate a TIFF with given resolution? Thanks a lot in 
advance!
