Instead of using -draw you can try using -annotate and aviod the extra level of quotes.

Code: Select all

  -gravity SouthEast   -annotate +10+10 "$CC Owner"
You can also pipe the string into the command

Code: Select all

   echo -e '\0251 owner'  | convert .... -annotate +10+10 @- ....
Warning echo -e will still add a return character to the end of the string, which some IM commands will interpret. In IM Examples I use a "printf" command which will not add a return unless explictally added (as an escape) to the format string.

See IM examples for more info.
