Make sure the ImageMagick package is installed.  It should be /usr/bin/convert

NOTE I generally make my own version of IM for fedora 10.  I am using
an Omega 10 install from the RPMFusion live disk, so you are in good
company.

See http://www.imagemagick.org/Usage/api/#build
for details of my build method.

I also installed...
  netpbm netpbm-progs ImageMagick
  ghostscript  xpdf xpdf-utils

for building I install the group installs...
   yum groupinstall "Development Tools"

And these packages....
  rpmdevtool
  freetype-devel ghostscript-devel   libwmf-devel
  jasper-devel   lcms-devel   bzip2-devel
  librsvg2 librsvg2-devel    liblpr-1 liblqr-1-devel

Remember I do this with the RpmFusion third-party Repositories
though all the above should be in the main repository.
