i want to make 800x600 png file using only command line .
File should be empty that is background transparent.How can I do this ?
Actually I don't like to use graphical interface.

i I am using windows version of imagemagick-6.4.I have extracted contents of zip file to a folder & gave the command. "D:\sumeet\software dvd\ImageMagick-6.4.8-9\convert.exe" 1.pdf 1.jpg The OUTPUT was convert.exe: `%s': %s "gswin32c.exe" -q -dQUIET -dPARANOIDSAFER -dBATCH -d...

I found that with inline resizing my RAM condumption was meager & on adding swap file usage option it worked better. TIP FOR ALL So to all guys who have trouble making montage of hundreds of high resolution images add the option -limit memory 1mb "file.extension[128x126]" NOTE here 128...

Do you think that inline resizing means a small image is loaded into memory instead of large one?

I found that with option
-limit memory 1mb
the usage of RAM decreased while swap usage increased.Thanks a lot.

When I give lot of files as input to montage then RAM usage increases & system hangs though I gave -geometry 512x512 option which i believe should make montage handle large files(in MB) with ease because if it takes only 512x512 thumbnail into memory then there should be no space problem.is ther...

Here is the image http://s5.tinypic.com/2iia1q9.jpg that I created on varying colour from #11ff to #ffff (i.e the first two characters were only changed). QUESTION (Q4 CLARIFIED)I meant that I want to draw circle whose inside is completely transparent so that when I draw it over a image then part of...

(Q1)I thought each primary colour has 256 variations in intensity so range 0 to ff.Please clarify. (Q2)What does alpha mean? (Q3)my .bat file points to exe file in evry command like "E:\software\image magick\ImageMagick-6.4.8-9\mogrify.exe" -stroke rgb(191,191,191) -fill rgb(191,191,191) -...

I want to know the meaning of '#00ff' that is how to determine what will be colour?

basically i want to write a .bat file in window containing series of commands to draw series of circles with fixed centre & varying radii(actually radius increasing by 1 pixel successively and constant x,y coordinate of center of circle) in a particular image file.If i can give colour of periphe...

I want to know how can I write command to draw circle with given center,radius & colour in a particular image.

I tried
convert.exe e:\*.png e:\*.jpg
Error: cannot find *.png.
I think I am not using the correct wild card character.
What should be command for converting all png files to jpg in e:\.

to write <text> to bottom of image convert e:\1.jpg -gravity south -annotate 0 "<text>" e:\1.jpg to add margin at base to 316*328 image of 22 pixel convert e:\1.jpg -background skyblue -extent 316x350 e:\1.jpg to add 28 pixel margin at bottom of image convert e:\2.jpg -gravity south -backg...

Thanks to all those who replied.I will soon post the things I have learnt in this thread.
