How do I determine good pointsize for my watermark?
Posted: 2011-08-24T06:01:23-07:00
Hi!
How do I obtain good pointsize for text depending on the image I print the text on?
Particularly, I'm making script to stamp watermakrs automatically on a wide variety of images(canvas sizes). I've made bash script for testing:
The script prints watermark text on transparent canvas with width = width of
original image and height picked roughly, ex. 300px. Then it trims and repages
watermark image and applies it on original image via "dissolve".
Thus, the watermark first canvas size doesn't matter. The only thing I have to
adjust here is pointsize. So how do I determine what pointsize to pick for
arbitrary original image size?
With the following command pointsize of 220 results font height of about 134px:
