Use the right tool for the job, which in this case isn't ImageMagick:
pdftk $1 cat 1-endS output $2
In general, ImageMagick is rarely the right option anyway. Here, pdftk
is better for manipulating pdf files, and netpbm is usually better for
images. I'd be using pdftoppm to create the thumbnails, for example
(although it would need a small script to convert them to a more suitable
format afterwards -- either png or jpg).
