Question on converting TIFF to ps using convert

[Gilbert Sebenste <sebenste@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hello all,

I am using the linux/unix "convert" command to change FTP'd
DiFAX maps into Postscript files to print them. Since an upgrade to Redhat 
7.3, the output PS files have grown from ~1.5 MB to 13 MB. Is there any 
way I can make them smaller? My printer (HP LaserJet 4000) is choking on 
them due to the large size. Any help greatly appreciated.
