Hi everyone,

i am a beginer and i want to create an image with a postal address in it, and later overlay the image at a specific location on a PDF.

i tried many timesany but i have an issue with size and pixels.
when i open it with photoshop etc, it shows a much much bigger size than it should be. like if i insert into word, etc

my address label size is:
10cm x 4.5xcm font: OCRB Fonsize 12
7 lines, maximum 38 chars per line;

-------------------------------
convert

-size 378x170 (1 cm = 37.79 px i think, i hope)
-font OCRB
-pointsize 16 (if i put 12 the characters are too small)
-background lightgray -fill black

label:
"12345678901234567890123456789012345678\n
12345678901234567890123456789012345678\n
12345678901234567890123456789012345678\n
12345678901234567890123456789012345678\n
12345678901234567890123456789012345678\n
12345678901234567890123456789012345678\n
12345678901234567890123456789012345678"
"c:\add2.jpg"
-------------------------------

i also have a problem because the line spacing between the seven lines it too small, how do i increase it or is it maybe because of the \n ?

i hope you can help, it drives me crazy.
thanks a lot

Try using "-density" and "-interline-spacing".
