Glad to hear you solved by disabling OpenMP. Note you can compile IM with it enabled and disable it for any given command line. see http://www.imagemagick.org/discourse-server/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=20756&p=83407&hilit=thread#p83407 I want to tell you how much I appreciate your patience and willing ...

Run my exact command with logo: However, something is wrong on your system, I suspect. Perhaps OpenMP? You are not getting any transparency. And your result cuts off the bottom (3rd line of text), which it should not as it is gravity south relative. You also need the same fonts I used or replace ...

I ran this: convert R34_02.jpg \ \( -clone 0 -fill none -colorize 100% \ -gravity northwest -fill red -font Arial -pointsize 18 -annotate +50+50 "Test1" \ -gravity center -fill blue -font Candice -pointsize 32 -annotate -100+0 "Test2" \ -gravity south -fill black -font Verdana -pointsize 24 ...

what version of IM? what platform and what output image format? Those commands work just fine for me on IM 6.7.7.10 Q16 Mac OSX Snow Leopard. And the second one took just a fraction of a second. real 0m0.763s user 0m0.718s sys 0m0.032s EDIT: centos6.2 not 5.5 my bad. I have version 6.7.7-9 on a ...

You original command should work by creating the shadowed text over and over on the same starting transparent image for each section of text (just add more similar lines of -annotate with the colors and fonts you want). Then once you have placed all your text on the transparent background just do ...

I really like the second example below soft_shadow (the montage example) but I was having trouble applying it to an image and not just the blue background.

Hey guys, I have a situation where I am adding text to an image. So far I can perform: 'convert -size 600x600 xc:none -font Arial -pointsize 32 -gravity northwest \ -stroke black -strokewidth 1 -annotate 0 'This is line 1' \ -background none -shadow 100x2+0+0 \ +repage -stroke none -fill #FFFFFF ...
