Add text to image files

Hi to all,

Some help here please.

I have a several image files (photos, jpg files), let say 100 photos, and a list of 100 different little comments in a text file, each comment for each image.

Somebody knows if I can add (like a watermark in the bottom) this text comments and how in the images automatically with a unix or php script?

Best regards for any help with this issue.

photo , jpg, png, ... are the result of a binary compression performed by different algorithm, so they are "data" formatted and should not be treated as txt file.

If you wanna add text on your images, you need to use a software that can handle such functionality.

To be visible on image, take a look at imagemagick
You can otherwise put data in exif fields of a jpeg image; see jhead

Thanks both for answer.

frans, I�ll try this application you say me, it has command line option, and seing
features it seems could add text automatically in images using some script language.

I hope do the job with this.

Thanks again.

Regards
