Using 'convert file.tif -resample 200x100 resampled_file.tif' gives a
file which cannot be displayed.

tiffinfo file.tif

Using 'convert file.tif -density 200x100 resampled_file.tif', seems to
produce the desired output, but, as said in my previous message,
ghfaxviewer has problems viewing this new file.

tiffinfo resampled_file.tif
