In fact, convert uses gs to make the convertion. This can be seen
by using the verbose option.

$ convert -verbose -density 300 myscript.ps myscript.gif
Note the use of options
-dTextAlphaBits=4 -dGraphicsAlphaBits=4

Those options are very usefull to produce quality rasterizations.

And finally good commands could be:
$ convert -verbose -density 300 -rotate 90 myscript.ps myscript.gif

or using gs directly
$ gs -q -dNOPAUSE -dBATCH -sDEVICE=pnmraw -r300x300 -dTextAlphaBits=4
-dGraphicsAlphaBits=4 -sOutputFile=- myscript.ps | pnmflip -r270 | convert
- myscript2.gif
