I'm using Linux. If you are on windows, it probably has some strict rules about fonts, like they all must be installed under the "fonts directory". The first thing I would try is to add 'Generic.ttf' to the windows fonts with it's fontadd utility; or try using a windows font instead. I'm sure you are aware of the help page for the Image::Magick module? http://www.simplesystems.org/ImageMagick/www/perl.html The perldoc for it is basically non-existent. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
