| convert -density 30 -resize 10% output.2.png output.3.png
| 
| and I get the output.3.png with resolution 76 dpi.
|

| 
| and then
| 
| convert -density 30 -resize 10% output.4.tiff output.5.png
| 
| the resolution of output.5.png is 76 dpi.
| 
| I don't know why the resolution of output.3.png and output.5.png is 76 dpi.

| P.S. the original input.tiff is obtain from GIMP with no compression.

Do things in the right order.  READ YOUR IMAGE FIRST

-density can override the input density of an image that has NOT been
read in.  It depends on image format!
