Make a text transparent

[fr33d0m]

Hi, i need help here
I want to put a text on an image and i want to make the text transparent.
I try this command : convert a.jpg -pointsize 50 -transparent black -draw "text 250, 250
'Works'" test1.jpg, but it didn't work.
Can someone help me, pls?
Thanks in advance...

Try this and see if it does the kind of thing you want:

Code: Select all

convert a.jpg -pointsize 50  -fill rgba(100%,100%,0,0.3) -gravity southwest -annotate +0+0 "Works" test1.jpg

It writes partially transparent yellow text on the image.
