I think it all comes out at the end because Ghostscript is actually doing the work on behalf of IM. You may need to check how many pages there are in your PDF and then do a loop if you want fine-grained control.

pages=$(identify a.pdf | wc -l)

# Alternative, faster way of getting number of pages - pdfinfo is part of Poppler package
pages=$(pdfinfo a.pdf | grep "^Pages")

for all pages 0 .. (pages-1)
   convert a.pdf[$page] page-${page}.png
done

Not sure I 100% understand what you want, but I think it is something like this...

Say you have a 20-page PDF, called input.pdf. If you print the scene number, whose escape sequence is %s, like this

convert input.pdf -format"%s\n" -write info: z%d.png

you will get this:

and these files:

ls z*
