hi all
i need a command line (.bat) using magick.exe to attach an image to a tif
lets say:
i have a folder of Tif images and i want to attach a .png image to each tif image and each tif image stay with the same name
i hope you got what i mean.


windows 8.1
ImageMagick-7.0.8-11-portable-Q16-x86

What do you mean by "attach"? Do you want the png to appear on the right of each tiff, or below it, or composed over it, or what?

Second question: can all of your tiffs and png fit into your memory at the same time? If they can, perhaps you can use a single "magick" command. Otherwise, you will need a shell loop, eg with "for".

thanks snibgo for your replay
1st
you know that 1 tif image can has images inside it, i want to add an external image to be at the end of theses
for example image.tif has inside it 4 images i want to add an external one lets say photo.png
so after the merging i will have image.tif that have 5 images inside it (4+photo.png at the end)
2nd
look i have a folder that that have a random names of tif images and i want to keep their names , all i want to do just put the photo.png in the end of each tif image in that folder
i hope i explained what i need well
thank you so much again for your replay

try
for one image at a time

or for a whole folder, then

you will need to write a script loop over each image in your folder and do the command above for it. The script loop syntax will depend upon your OS (Windows vs Unix)

Is your tiff multi-paged or multi-layered? Perhaps you can post a link to an example TIFF so we can see what kind it is. You can post to any free hosting service that won't change its format, such as dropbox.com and then put the URL here

thanks fmw42 for yor reply
i'm using
windows 8.1
ImageMagick-7.0.8-11-portable-Q16-x86

i tried the code that you wrote before but this code need exactly the names of the files to be static
i tried also this one
but its the same issue

i want the code to take any tif (multi-paged) image with any name and to add an static .png file to the end of that and keep the original name as it was
so what i mean for example
england.tif contains 4 multi-pages i wand to add flag.png to the end so the output will be england.tif (the same name) but now contain 5 multi-pages
so what i want is take a tif file with the same name and put a flag.png to the end of the pages then loop for each multi-paged .tif and put the flag.png in the end without renaming or without being static with name

usa.tif (3 multi-pages) ==after the code==> usa.tif contain (4 multi-pages) *flag.png added in the end
same file name (3 pages)====> adding flag.png ====> same file name (4 pages)

brazil.tif(5 multi-pages) ==after the code==> brazil.tif contain (6 multi-pages) *flag.png added in the end
same file name (5 pages)====> adding flag.png ====> same file name (6 pages)

so i want the code to take the file name as it will be (to be dynamic batch) and add a static image to the end of the pages or each tif multi-paged file


Folder contain (this folder will have a new files everyday with new names)
||
||
||
\/
usa.tif (1 pages)
england.tif (2 page)
brazil.tif (3 pages)
egypt.tif (4 pages)
france.tif (5 pages)
xxxxx.tif (x pages)

||
||
the code
||
||
\/
take the input file(s) and adding a "flag.png" to the end.

||
||
the output
||
||
\/
usa.tif (2 pages)
england.tif (3 page)
brazil.tif (4 pages)
egypt.tif (5 pages)
france.tif (6 pages)
xxxxx.tif (x+1 pages)

Okay, so you want the same image, say photo.png, to be added as an image to the end of the images in each tiff. I would put the command Fred showed and put it in a "for" loop, like this: That command should work if typed at the CMD command line. If you put it in a BAT file, double each %: This will change all the tiff files, so you can't simply repeat the command without adding the image twice. I suggest you backup the directory first, in case of problems.

can i give you a hug
it's what i want thank you so much

final thing please its only work only if the name if the tif file has no spaces
