After testing this issue several ways it does seem to be a bug. I added a thread to the Bugs section. You can find it

Code: Select all
magick -background none -fill #000000 -font H:\python27\fonts\BW-penn.ttf -size x90 -gravity center label:"GO TIGERS!" asdf.png
or

Nope.
So some of you are saying that the font's Glyph set is bad. Bad how? If I download a stupid little program to edit the glyphs, what would I need to change in order to fix the problem?

If it fails with multiple usual fonts such as Arial, Times, Helvetica, etc. Then it is not like just one fonts set of glyphs. Do you have trouble with other fonts in the same way with the !? Is your freetype delegate library up to date? Perhaps update it or re-install it and try again or perhaps re-install IM as well.
Does it fail with the latest IM 6?
Are you using standard Windows 10 or the new unix capability in Windows 10?

Do other Windows (10) users have this same issue with the ! symbol?

I think GeeMack has nailed the problem, which isn't specific to a font, nor to the final character being "!". In my tests, having "i" as the final character shows the problem.
(IM v7.0.3-5 on Windows 8.1)

So it seems to be a windows issue, since it does not happen on my Mac. I don't know about other Linux systems.

Okay so I installed the Windows subsystem for Linux which enables me to use bash from within command prompt. I ran the command from there WITHOUT escaping the exclamation point and it works great. The G is no longer being cut off. I am officially clueless on why this is specific to different OS's.

Glad you have at least pinned it down. The IM developer will need to look into this. I suggest you post to the bugs forum and put a link there back to this topic.
