setting up TeX4HT as installed from fpTeX-0.3

I apologise for writing a lot of messages to this list but I am a new user
of fpTeX and I am facing a few problems since my UNIX background is almost
null. 

I am trying to set up TeX4HT, which I prefer to tth as I can open the
output in MS word and give it to my supervisor. 

What I cannot set up properly is the DVI to GIF conversion. I have
ImageMagick installed and its executables in the PATH variable. 
I have found on the TeX4HT documentation on line (presumably the following
link)
http://www.cis.ohio-state.edu/~gurari/TeX4ht/mn.html

I attach here my tex4ht.env file for those of you who feel happy to help. 

Thanks in advance,

Massimo
