I am getting very slow processing speed with the following command to
add text to a TIF file:

 

convert 211284.f.tif -pointsize 60 -gravity southeast -annotate
0x0+300+15 "BNSF 270000-270079" -monochrome -compress group4 +matte
211test.tif

 

I need to add descriptive text to hundreds of TIF files.  The files are
various sizes and shapes of technical drawings, the largest page size
being 28" tall by 128" wide at 300 DPI.  The TIF files were generated
using DocuJet, Zan, and Ghostscript.  The OS is Windows XP, and I would
like to carry out the whole processing loop from within VB6.  For files
of less than 50k filesize, this command takes several minutes, which is
barely tolerable.  But a 100k file takes nearly an hour, and I have
dozens in that size range!

 

Is there a different command or options that would be quicker (and not
result in larger filesize)?

 

Is there perhaps a completely different program that would work better?

 

 

Thanks,

JZ
