thanks for reply, but with Label and Caption if I use "-size 200x" and I have the text box 200x400, the font change only the widht and not the height.
examples:
my text box is 300x50
my text it "first test"
if I use "-size 300x" the width is automatically stretch to 300 but not for the height
if I use "-size x50" the height is automatically stretch to 50 but the width no, it's shorter

Maybe another possibility is to generate a text image and then resize the image and composite with the background image, but I don't know if the quality is ok

grazie
marco

I don't understand what you want to do.

Perhaps you want to make some text exactly fill a given height and width.

If so, then make the text too large, then resize to exactly those dimensions.

Ciao,
I need to stretch both widht and height at the same time, and discard the text aspect ratio
I uploaded a image of what I need
