Can you add the flag --enable-shared in your configure command?

From your output, it doesn't seem to be enabled.

I compiled ImageMagick from sources this night. I now have the version 7.0.3 and it works accordingly to your examples.

Thank you

That was my thought yes. user@server:~/scripts$ convert -size 1260x253 -background None -font /home/user/_resources/BebasNeue.otf -fill '#ffffff' -stroke black -strokewidth 6 caption:"testing" -format "%[caption:pointsize]" info: convert: unknown image property "%[caption:pointsize]" @ warning ...

If not, is there a mean to do that?
