montage does not produce labels

Post by panderson »

I have just installed ImageMagick-6.3.6-8-Q16 on Win/XP SP2 using the binary install. The command:

montage *.jpg -shadow -tile x4 -label '%f' all.jpg

produces great thumbnails but doesn't produce any labels. I've tried several different format strings with no luck. I've also tried -debug all and it would appear not be a font problem (i.e. no "unable to find font" messages).

Any advice? Thanks. I can produce the -debug output for you if that would help.

Put -label in front of the input filename:

montage -label '%f' *.jpg -shadow -tile x4 all.jpg

Thank you for your answer. Sorry I put this in BUGS. Obviously I should have put it in the New Users forum. I still have a question but I'll move it to a better place.
