I would like to create psd- or tif-files with two layers, for example one layer with text and another with grafics. I already have two tif-files and just need to merge them.
I tried "convert file1.tif file2.tif result.psd" but Photoshop can not open the resulting psd-file and claimes my version of Photoshop CS5 is not compatible with the file. The same procedure with tif gets me a tif without layers.
I am using GS 9.21. Any idea what´s wrong?
PSD with two layers made with gs, file unreadable

Re: PSD with two layers made with gs, file unreadable
You have to make a flattened version of the file to add to your psd file.
Unix syntax:
If on windows, remove the two \
Please always provide your IM version and platform.
IM will not make a two-layer TIFF. If you try, it will return a a two-page tiff.
Unix syntax:
Code: Select all
convert file1.tif file2.tif \( -clone 0,1 -flatten \) +insert result.psd

Thanks a lot, I am working with Mac OS 10.10.5 and GS 9.21.
The result of your code is still unreadable in Photoshop CS 5.1

OK, fixed it. There was a problem with an icc-profile in the source files.
