The basic concept is -compose over -composite. See http://www.imagemagick.org/Usage/compose/#compose

For IM 6

Code: Select all

convert background image overlayimage -gravity center -compose over -composite resultimage

For IM 7

Code: Select all

magick background image overlayimage -gravity center -compose over -composite resultimage

If these do not work, please post your images to some free hosting service such as dropbox.com and put the URLs here.

You would be better off using convert .... -composite, rather than composite. The former is more flexible.

Depending upon how big your text image is relative to your background, use -gravity south -geometry +X+Y.

Once I see your images, I can give you a better command.

fmw42 wrote: ↑2017-04-14T20:00:46-07:00 This is the more current command for IM 6. If IM 7 change "convert" to "magick"

Code: Select all

convert scenery-008.jpg chinese_08_transp.png -gravity center -define compose:args=80 -compose blend -composite result.png

If you want the text offset from the center, then add -geometry +X+Y right after -gravity center, where X is the horizontal shift and Y is the vertical shift.

see
http://www.imagemagick.org/script/compose.php
http://www.imagemagick.org/Usage/layers/#convert

If you want to resize the text image, then use parenthesis processing such as

Unix syntax:

Code: Select all

convert scenery-008.jpg \( chinese_08_transp.png -resize X% \) -gravity center -define compose:args=80 -compose blend -composite result.png

Windows syntax:

Code: Select all

convert scenery-008.jpg ( chinese_08_transp.png -resize X% ) -gravity center -define compose:args=80 -compose blend -composite result.png

where X here is the resize percent. See http://www.imagemagick.org/script/comma ... php#resize and http://www.imagemagick.org/script/comma ... p#geometry

⟫ convert scenery-008.jpg chinese_08_transp.png -gravity center -define compose:args=80 -compose blend -composite result_01.png

⟫ convert scenery-008.jpg \( chinese_08_transp.png -resize 150% \) -gravity center -define compose:args=80 -compose blend -composite result_02.png

⟫ convert scenery-008.jpg chinese_08_transp.png -gravity center -geometry +0+400 -define compose:args=80 -compose blend -composite result_05.png

⟫ convert scenery-008.jpg chinese_08_transp.png -gravity center -geometry +0-400 -define compose:args=80 -compose blend -composite result_06.png

But, you can make the links to these files shareable. Dropbox recently changed their public folder so that it is not shareable as I recall. So read the instructions for making a link shareable to a file.

Referring to 3) and 4)
Why +0+400 (y=+400) moving the Text to bottom not to top?
Why +0-400 (y=-400) moving the Text to top not to bottom?

If I need ;
1) adding another image_02.jpg to the top right sector of the background.
2) the Text images is still in the center retaining its original size
3) image_02.jpg to be in a circle trimmed, size any such for testing

dim=`convert image_02.jpg -format "%[fx:min(w,h)]\n" info:`
dim2=`convert xc: -format "%[fx:$dim/2]" info:`
convert scenery-008.jpg chinese_08_transp.png \
-gravity center -define compose:args=80 -compose blend -composite \
\( image_02.jpg -gravity center -crop ${dim}x${dim}+0+0 +repage -write mpr:img +delete \) \
\( mpr:img -fill black -colorize 100 -fill white -draw "circle $dim2,$dim2 0,$dim2" \
mpr:img +swap -alpha off -compose copy_opacity -composite \) \
-gravity northeast -compose over -composite \
