WMF conversion results in bluring

I am converting a WMF to a GIF (although I tried converting to jpeg also) and the resulting image is "blurred". Line edges look bad, and text looks really bad. Here is the command I am using: nconvert -out gif -colors 256 *.wmf. I can see the original WMF in Word and it looks very sharp, but the resulting gif is garbage. What can you suggest?

Actually, I have pinned this down to using the resize option. Any thoughts as to how to resize without loss of quality would be appreciated.

Currently there is no option to set output size for WMF...

Actually, I am having the same issue when converting from JPEG to GIF. When I use the resize option, the image pixelates.
Thoughts?

Please put -resize before -colors

That did it. Thanks.
Probably could do well to document that.
