The Animate Package (Latex) Example using MikTex

To be able to use the Animate package, gif files should be converted to png files using available software. In this case, conversion of the *.gif file into the *.png is carried out by ImageMagick 6.6.8 through Cygwin shell via:

convert filename.gif filename.png

A nice example with sample tex and pdf files can be found at:
