Transparent Watermark and task scheduler

Post by doylegoss »

I am adding a watermark to an image via a batch file which is ran from task scheduler. if i run the batch from a command line myself the logo i am using for the watermark is transparent (the way it should be) but if it is ran through the task scheduler the transparent areas are black .. here is the line in my batch

composite -dissolve 100% -geometry +20+0 -gravity southeast kol_logo2314.gif current.png currentlg.png

any ideas what the heck is different? Thank in advance.

Well i have found the reason.. I have the batch file running on another PC and was accessing the drive from another PC. when i ran the batch file locally on the PC it is located i was able to duplicate the problem. although both have the same version of image magic it seems that the "dissolve" was causing the problem for some reason. after removing it from the command it worked fine. Have a great day everyone!
