  convert, from ImageMagick. To get nice antialiasing, I cheat with
something in the spirit of

convert -density 250 -resize 700x700 image.pdf image.png

The -density option forces a rasterization of the PDF at 250 dpi; the
-resize makes sure it fits into 700x700, and scaling does
anti-aliasing too.
