How quickly convert text file to image?

Post by guillaumech »

Hi everybody!

I use this awsome library since few years, but, I'm front of a problem. I'd like to put each value from text file on an image. I used this command line :
montage -label '' `sed 's/^/label:/' myFile` -tile 60x40 -geometry 40x40\> image.png;
It's work!, but not quickly... There are 2 400 values in the file, one on each line, so 2 400 lines. How make it faster?
Thank you very much.
Guillaume.

I don't think any one knows how to make it faster other than the obvious -- get a faster computer, use more threads, use Q8 IM compile, etc.

If your resulting image is very large, then see
