Imagemagick renders nothing depending on font and pointsize

[CatBurgers]

I'm using IM 6.8.9-6 Q16 x64 2014-07-22 on Windows 8. The font I'm using can be downloaded at http://b8003743f200b9f07ffc-605ac059448 ... 163ec2dd1f

The command I'm using is:

Code: Select all

convert -quiet -background none -fill "#000000" -pointsize 40 -size 1170x151 -font "path_to_font" -gravity Center -interline-spacing 0 caption:@"text_file" "path_to_output"

With that font, certaint pointsize will fail to generate the text on the image. (ie 40, 41, 42, 43 can't generate the text, 44, 45 and 46 work fine). You can see the output of those pointsize (in reverse order) here

I can reproduce the issue and I have narrowed it down to a bug in FreeType. I have reported the bug here: https://savannah.nongnu.org/bugs/index.php?43356. For our Windows distribution we use a local copy of the FreeType libary. I just submitted a patch for this to our repository and the bug will be fixed in the next release of ImageMagick (6.8.9-9).
