I am having an issue with the Annotate function of PerlMagick (6.40).
In a test perl module I am requesting a list of the fonts available and
walking through the list to generate an image containing the font name,
written in that font. The images are created and the text is displayed,
however the text appears in the same font in each image.
My script:
my $image;
my $font_image;
my $x = "";
my $i = 0;
$image = Image::Magick->new;
my @fonts = $image->QueryFont();
for ($i=0;$i<scalar @fonts;$i++)
{
$font_image = Image::Magick->new;
$font_image->ReadImage('xc:white');
$font_image->Set(debug=>'Annotate');
$x = $font_image->Resize(width=>640, height=>640);
warn "$x" if "$x";
my $text = $fonts[$i];
$x = $font_image->Annotate(font=>$text, x=>10, y=>160, fill=>'green',
text=>$text);
warn "$x" if "$x";
my $full_preview_name := "/appl/images/fonts/a_".$text.".gif";
$x = $font_image->Write(filename=>$full_preview_name,
compression=>'NONE');
warn "$x" if "$x";
}
With debug set for Annotate, I receive that msgs that indicate it is
selecting the correct font and I have checked that each of these file exist.

So, any ideas why the text annotation in each of the images never changes
fonts?
Any help is greatly appreciated
