I am trying to create an image from 1 single image, in this case 19.jpg from the Windows command prompt. If I carry out the following commands in order I can create the image.
Code: Select all
convert 19.jpg -resize 1200 -gravity west -extent 2700x1800 19_layout.jpg
Code: Select all
convert 19.jpg -resize 570 19_small.jpg
Code: Select all
composite -geometry +1480+40 19_small.jpg 19_layout.jpg
Code: Select all
composite -geometry +2090+40 19_small.jpg 19_layout.jpg
Code: Select all
composite -geometry +1480+920 19_small.jpg 19_layout.jpg
Code: Select all
composite -geometry +2090+920 19_small.jpg 19_layout.jpg
Obviously what I would like to do is create this with one command and I am not understanding how to do this. Any help appreciated.

This should replace the last four commands in your list:
Code: Select all
convert 19_layout.jpg 19_small.jpg -geometry +1480+40 -composite -geometry +2090+40 19_small.jpg -composite -geometry +1480+920 19_small.jpg -composite -geometry +2090+920 19_small.jpg -composite 19_layout.jpg
If that works, then we can add the others to that command.
Is the third command in your list a mistake?

Third line was a mistake.
I tried your script and the first image is added correctly but the second and subsequent are put in the top left corner.
thanks for the help so far.

OK, try this:
Code: Select all
convert 19_layout.jpg 19_small.jpg -geometry +1480+40 -composite +repage -geometry +2090+40 19_small.jpg -composite +repage -geometry +1480+920 19_small.jpg -composite +repage -geometry +2090+920 19_small.jpg -composite 19_layout.jpg

Still cant get it working. What I need is;
and what I am getting is
and if there is a better way to do it I am happy to do that.

OK, I tested a version of this and this one should work. The geometry has to be specified in front of the -composite operator, not in front of the file.
Code: Select all
convert 19_layout.jpg 19_small.jpg -geometry +1480+40 -composite 19_small.jpg -geometry +2090+40 -composite 19_small.jpg -geometry +1480+920 -composite 19_small.jpg -geometry +2090+920 -composite 19_layout.jpg

If that one works, this should combine it all into one command (I hope):
Code: Select all
convert ( 19.jpg -resize 1200 -gravity west -extent 2700x1800 ) ( 19.jpg -resize 570 -write mpr:small ) -geometry +1480+40 -composite mpr:small -geometry +2090+40 -composite mpr:small -geometry +1480+920 -composite mpr:small -geometry +2090+920 -composite 19_layout.jpg

Thanks for the code, I tried it but had to modify as follows;
Code: Select all
convert ( 19.jpg -resize 1200 -gravity west -extent 2700x1800 ) ( 19.jpg -resize 570 -write mpr:small ) -geometry +1480-430 -composite mpr:small -geometry +2090-430 -composite mpr:small -geometry +1480+440 -composite mpr:small -geometry +2090+440 -composite 19_layout.jpg
I cant work out why I needed the minus distances (each of which is 480px away from where I would expect).

try adding -respect-parenthesis after convert before your first paren. the -gravity west may be passing on to all the subsequent parts
or after your second paren, add -gravity north to reset it.

Well thanks for all the help, I used the following and it works a treat;
Code: Select all
convert ( 19.jpg -resize 1200 -gravity west -extent 2700x1800 ) ( 19.jpg -resize 570 -write mpr:small ) -gravity NorthWest -geometry +1480+40 -composite mpr:small -geometry +2090+40 -composite mpr:small -geometry +1480+920 -composite mpr:small -geometry +2090+920 -composite 19_layout.jpg
Just need to add the text now

Thanks for all the help. Final code will rotate the image so that it is taller than it is wide and actual text will be added later.
Code: Select all
convert ( 19.jpg -rotate -90> -resize 1200 -gravity west -extent 2700x1800 ) ( 19.jpg -rotate -90> -resize 570 -write mpr:small ) -gravity NorthWest -geometry +1480+40 -composite mpr:small -geometry +2090+40 -composite mpr:small -geometry +1480+920 -composite mpr:small -geometry +2090+920 -composite -pointsize 100 -annotate 270x270+1320+1700 "caption will go here" -pointsize 75 -annotate 270x270+1440+1700 http://www.myphotoshere.co.uk/password.html 19_layout.jpg
and this is the result;
