spine for book with text left j / space / right j

[wfzimmerman]

How can I create the spine for a book with the title left justified, some space, followed by the publisher name right justified? I understand how to rotate, the problem I am having is that I don't know how to make the title gravity west and the publisher name gravity right at the same time.

Many solutions are possible, such as this Windows script:

Code: Select all

convert -size 2000x100 xc:Pink ^
  -pointsize 80 ^
  -draw "gravity West text 0,0 'A Christmas Carol'" ^
  -draw "gravity East text 0,0 'Publisher, Inc'" ^
