Critical errors using pango?

Hoping this isn't just something I overlooked on my end.
Using the very first example
Code: Select all
convert -background lightblue pango:"Anthony Thyssen" pango.gif
from command line returns the errors
Code: Select all
(process:9523): Pango-CRITICAL **: pango_font_description_set_size: assertion `size >= 0' failed
convert: memory allocation failed `Anthony Thyssen' @ error/pango.c/ReadPANGOImage/382.
convert: no images defined `pango.gif' @ error/convert.c/ConvertImageCommand/3078.
Other examples yield similar results.
edit: Sorry, forgot to mention I'm running Arch Linux with ImageMagick version 6.8.0.7 and Pango 1.32.4.

Thank you for your fast fix.
I've downloaded and installed ImageMagick 6.8.1-8, which has fixed the above problem, but now using example
Code: Select all
convert -background lightblue -size 150 \
pango:"Anthony Thyssen is the main author of IM Examples" \
pango_size.gif
Every word makes a new line, so instead of
I get

Just wanted to say I upgraded to the new version 6.8.1-9, and now it seems to be working (no new lines after text).
To get the font the same size as the example, however, I needed to include a single <small> tag.
Thanks.
