I can not help you with the automatic conversion, but if you only want 
to switch between a screen and a print version, here is what I suggest:
- don´t add the file extension when including:
\includegraphics[...]{fig}
- put the corresponding files in different folders, e.g. the print 
version in a folder called graphics_print and the screen version in a 
folder called graphics_screen. So you have graphics_print/fig.pdf and 
graphics_screen/fig.png
- now tell \includegraphics where to look via the \graphicspath command:
\graphicspath{{./graphics_print/}} to include the print version and 
\graphicspath{{./graphics_screen/}} to include the screen version.
This works well if you use \usepackage{graphicx} in the preamble.
The graphics can now have other extensions as well (e.g. *.jpg) and you 
can still use them with different resolutions.

HTH,
