JPEG doesn't support transparency. Try saving as a PNG instead.

This is either a command-line problem, or a font problem. When I put those Greek characters in a text file (without a leading Byte Order Mark) and issue: convert -size 620x50 xc:none -font c:\windows\fonts\Arialuni.ttf -pointsize 30 -fill "#FFFFFF" -stroke red -gravity center -annotate 0x0...

You can't use PHP code directly in Windows batch files. But here is a batch file you can put on your desktop. Drop an image file on it, and it will create a captioned version in the same drive/directory of the image. set INFILE=%1 "%IMG%convert" %INFILE% -format "set WIDTH=%%w\nset CA...

Here is a version of fmw's script, for Windows. I have added an undercolour, to help legibility. set INFILE=twooceansmarathon2494.jpg convert %INFILE% -format "set WIDTH=%%w\nset CAPTION=%%[EXIF:ImageDescription]" info:cx.bat call cx.bat convert %INFILE% ^ ( -size %WIDTH%x -background none...

The product called "LR/Mogrify" seems to be an interface between Lightroom and ImageMagick.

http://www.imagemagick.org/Usage/annotating/ is a good page for learning how to use ImageMagick directly to annotate images.

Your command doesn't follow IM syntax. (Sadly, IM is poor at reporting bad syntax.) Try: convert.exe "c:\temp\foo.pdf" -region 792x71+0+0 -blur 0x2 -region 792x715+0+76 -blur 0x2 "c:\temp\bar.pdf" To test just the general rasterizing effect, try: convert.exe "c:\temp\foo.pdf...

The coalesced versions all animate under IE8.

A rocket launching would work in the same way. Good web practise provides a facility for the user to stop animations on a page.

@winracer:

I don't know if you are still around, but
on Windows 7, IM 6.6.0-8, happily creates the still file from the tenth frame. The bad news is: it uses and needs ffmpeg. Most open source software needs ffmpeg for video processing.

(a) The documentation http://www.imagemagick.org/Usage/morphology/ mentions "+depth". Could this be documented on the options page, please? (b) Could the morphology distance 'scale' value please accept percent (%), meaning (as we might expect) the value is a percent of quantum? The default...

Yes, erode works fine to make them thinner. I want to make them shorter.

It's strange that IE8 can animate some (eg "test mission rails with inserts") but not others (eg "test sato gates"). I downloaded the small "test sato gates" and tried: convert sato_gates.gif sg1.gif convert sato_gates.gif -coalesce sg2.gif sg1.gif won't animate under I...

This is part of (ie a crop from) a frame of a video. It is mostly transparent, and shows a number of black lines adjacent to white lines. Morphology, applied to the alpha channel, can erode the black/white lines.

Yes, sorry, I wrote "the options should be after the input file name, not after it" but I meant "the options should be after the input file name, not BEFORE it" It should be like this: $convert = $convert_path.' "'.$src_file.'" '.$commands.' "'.$dest_file.'" '...

Joomla is issuing a slightly naff command: the options should be after the input file name, not after it. However, when I issue the (Windows) command: convert -resize 239x168 -quality 99 -unsharp 3.5x1.2+1.0+0.10 euro_doorL.gif euro_doorS3.gif the resulting file is the correct small size, and animat...

The morphology usage page http://www.imagemagick.org/Usage/morphology/ under "Morphology Introduction" shows 6 kernels, including "prune". The text says: Also note how the second last kernel [prune] not only has a 'on' value but also an 'off' value as as part of its 'shape'. Both...
