Try -geometry +430+70 instead of -gravity. +430+70 should move the image 430 to the right and 70 down.

You description/maths do not quite add up but this code will add a 160px border to all sides. Edit: Reading your post again I assume it depends on if it is a landscape or portrate picture. I was trying something to do this in one line of code the other night but had to use two lines. I do not have t...

http://redux.imagemagick.org/discourse-server/viewtopic.php?f=1&t=8579&hilit= The trouble with people not using good descriptive subjects ! There are other posts on this subject; you just need to search for the correct phrase. I have a php script that can be modified here: http://www.rubblew...

My last post does not work :( I thought this would cure it but it does not work either exec("/usr/local/bin/convert -size 200x200 xc:white /(8.jpg -resize 200x200 /) -gravity center -composite 8_mod.jpg"); Not as neat but it works; perhaps Anthony will look at this and put me right on the ...

The bit of code is not sizing - its just combining the photo with a background ! It is creating a white background 200 x 200 and placing the image in the center of the background. I will add a bit of resizing code - I didn't realize you wanted to resize the image. exec("/usr/local/bin/convert -...

You could try this: Note: I would not use - in file names.

It sounds as though there must be a problem with your setup if something as simple as changing a jpg to a gif will not work. I had a similar error to this the other night convert: no decode delegate for this image format `image.png'. when trying to resize an error.log by mistake ! I can not help any...

I would try something simple first that should work: exec("/usr/local/bin/convert input_image.jpg output_image.gif "); echo "<img src=\"output_image.gif \">"; Just thinking about it is this line wrong : $command = "$convert $input $output"; Should be $command ...

This code when it is run will resize and OVEWRIGHT all the jpg images in the folder: <?php exec("/usr/local/bin/mogrify -size 45x *.jpg" ); ?> Problems: 1/ On my server I have to use an FTP program to CHMOD all the images to 777 first - you may or may not have this problem. 2/ You would ne...

I know this is not really an ImageMagick problem but I have started looking at the "return code" from the code. Is there a list anywhere telling you what they mean ? Or do they not tell you anything useful apart from 0 succesful and everything else fail ? e.g. exec("/usr/local/bin/con...

You are not using the crop function correctly farish. As I understand it -crop x246 is cropping the image into 246 wide parts so if the image is 2460 wide you will get 10 images. You want -crop x246+0+0 which will crop the image once into a piece 246 wide with in this case the top left of the crop l...

I did have problems on my server with all text at one point. My hosts updated ImageMagick and added the Ghostscript code that cured it.

Try this and see if it works; it will create an image with some text on it: <?php exec("/usr/local/bin/convert -background lightblue -fill blue -font Courier -pointsize 72 label:Hello label.gif "); ?> <img src="label.gif "> In some of your example code you are using user/local/bi...

As you say you do not have arial in the imagemagick build ? I think arial is a windows standard font. You can either upload arial.ttf to your server : // arial.ttf in the same folder or use the path to arial.ttf /usr/bin/convert -font arial.ttf $aFromfile -append -pointsize 30 -gravity North -annota...
