Position issue after rotating text on image

[timoto]

Hi Friends,
I am facing issue with text position after changing rotation of text on image. Can you please guide / help me to fix the issue?<br/>

Please find attached image for detailed explanation.



Thank You

I notice on Stackoverflow you have posted some Imagick code - if that is what you want to use you should say so here.

I think you will need to use a distort function ( SRT ) instead of a rotation in -annotate. Alternativly you could create the text image, rotate and composite it over the photo.

Hi Bonzo,

Thank you so much for your reply. Yes i posted code in stack. Can you please provide some example how to use distort function?

Thanks

To keep the position, you must specify offsets with -gravity center. For example,

Code: Select all

convert -size 300x300 xc:white -fill black -gravity center -font arial -pointsize 24 -annotate +50-50 "some text" tmp.png

Code: Select all

convert -size 300x300 xc:white -fill black -gravity center -font arial -pointsize 24 -annotate 30x30+50-50 "some text" tmp2.png
