Hi,
I have installed ImageMagick 6.2.6 on Mac OS X (10.4.5) following the
instructions at http://www.imagemagick.org/script/binary-releases.php
Now I'm trying to modify some image files by adding a label to the
bottom of the image, following the examples at http://
www.cit.gu.edu.au/~anthony/graphics/imagick6/annotating/
However, the labels never appear on my output files.
% montage -geometry +0+0 -background white -label "Mickey"
Mickey.jpg Mickey_labeled.jpg
The file "Mickey_labeled.jpg" has a thin white stripe across the
bottom with no visible label.
% montage -frame 5 -geometry +0+0 -label "Mickey" Mickey.jpg
Mickey_framed.jpg
The file "Mickey_framed.jpg" has a gray frame around it, slightly
thicker at the bottom than
elsewhere, but no visible label.
% convert Mickey.jpg -gravity South -background white -splice
0x18 -draw "text 0,0 'Mickey'" Mickey_splice.jpg
The file "Mickey_splice.jpg" has a white strip at the bottom
(thicker than "Mickey_labeled.jpg")
but still no visible label. But I get this error message:
convert: unable to read font `/sw/share/ghostscript/fonts/
n019003l.pfb'.
% convert Mickey.jpg -size 1x18 xc:Yellow -background Yellow -
append -gravity South -draw "text 0,0 'Mickey'" Mickey_append.jpg
The file "Mickey_append.jpg" has a yellow strip at the bottom
(same size as "Mickey_splice.jpg")
but no visible label. Same error message again:
convert: unable to read font `/sw/share/ghostscript/fonts/
n019003l.pfb'.
I'm not sure why ImageMagick seems to be looking for ghostscript
fonts in that odd location; I have them at /usr/local/share/
ghostscript/fonts.
Help?
