Hello,

I'm in a hurry to print a few dozens of images from a digital camera and
would like to print them with text description under them.

What I envision is to be able to convert image (in a JPEG file) which
looks like this:

+----------------------------+
|                            |
|                            |
..
|                            |
+----------------------------+

To something like this:

+-----------------------+
|                       |
..
|                       |
+-----------------------+
Rome, Italy, 17 July 2003

I then plan to go with these images to a photo printer to get hard
copies.

1. The image might be a squeezed ("zoomed out") in order to free space
for the description, if required.
2. It would be nice if the date could be obrtained automatically from
the JPEG file (using exif tools?)
3. It would be nice to be able to do this in command line or via text
files, instead of having to update each image separatly with an image
manipulation program.

Googling around so far didn't bring up anything useful. I'm looking at
the GIMP but me and the GIMP have never been on good terms so I'm still
at the "dah? What's this?" stage of using it (would script-fu help
here?)

Thanks for any help/pointers.

Cheers,

--Amos
