After you install ImageMagick you need to bring up a new command prompt window. It should have the new environment updated by the ImageMagick installer. With the new environment you should be able to use the convert command with no need to rename it to imconvert (although you can if you want). Finally, you can run the convert in any folder you want. The logo.gif image should be created when you issue this command:
  • convert logo: logo.gif
Run the command and check for logo.gif in your current working directory.

Type this command:
  • identify -list type
to list all the fonts ImageMagick knows about.
