I don't think this is a bug in imagemagick at all. It's a feature of evince. PDF documents contain a title attribute, which is inside the metadata of the file. This is set when the pdf is originally generated. Renaming the file (eg with mv) doesn't change the internal metadata. Evince then shows the title-attribute, not the filename in the window title. 3 possible workarounds: - use xpdf (which always shows the filename) - rename your photo to "lab.jpg", before using convert. - use something like pdfedit to change the metadata HTH, Richard _______________________________________________ Magick-bugs mailing list [email protected] http://studio.imagemagick.org/mailman/listinfo/magick-bugs
