Legacy ImageMagick Discussions Archive

Hi everyone

I'm new with using ImageMagick. I'm currently working with the ImageMagick-6.4.1-Q16 Windows Version and I have a very strange error at the moment. Besides the error only occurs with that special font with is basicly a font with a logo and several other graphical items in it.

The command line:
That's what I get back:

2008-06-18T09:28:02+02:00 0:03 2.734u 6.4.1 Cache convert[4064]: cache.c/ExtendCache/3439/Cache

destroy 123[0]
convert: unable to extend cache `123': No space left on device.
convert: missing an image filename `label_size.jpg'.

And that's what -list resource tells me

With Arial or any other font everything works fine and all of my disk have min. 9GB of free disk space.

Anyone an idea? I already searched the forum and internet, but till I haven't got a solution for that problem.

Something is causing ImageMagick to request 9.375 terabytes of temporary disk. What happens if you use a pointsize of 12 instead of 1? Check your debugging statements carefully and locate where ImageMagick is trying to open such a huge image file.

it's possible to generate the image after copying the glyph from the initial font file to a new one. Maybe it's an error in the font itself, but I don't have an idea where it comes from. The tmp location is canged the ./tmp inside of the IM folder and during generation files are created there.
With the initital .ttf it's possible to generate one glyph in 1pt at 72dpi. After copying the gylph to a new font it's possible to generate it in whatever dpi and resolution I want without any error.
