You could try putting the -text "HELLO HELLO HELLO" term before the other text switches, i.e. immediately after the nconvert.exe term.

Just a guess though...

Note: If you post code, it would be helpful if you could post it between 'Code' tags:

Code: Select all

C:\Users\xxxxx\Desktop\etc  ...

Can you reproduce it?

This bug occurs only with option "-text_rotation".

And it's a difference in text rotation between nconvert and xnconvert: axis of rotation for xnconvert is center and nconvert's axis of rotation is top-left corner. Its make a problem for exporting scenario from xnconvert :?
Just for information.

I spent three hours covering women's charms, but it did not hide behind. :D

If the text and background with the outline are a fixed size, a workaround might be to create a small file with that content, convert the background to transparent, and then apply that image to your images using the NConvert watermark action...

Or, might it be simpler to use a freeware Windows software such as Paint.net which supports layers, and which would allow you to position the text on a transparent layer in front of the image using the mouse?

cday Thank you for your advices. I using preview xnconvert to prepare for a specific script(that uses nconvert) some parameters like offset x y and degree of rotation. I writing it to txt file for each picture. Then script processing some specific actions with photos. I can calculate this parameters(offsets and degree) by perambulating it in nconvert, but its uncofortable. Why not make nconvert and xnconvert prodused same result with same parameters? It will be great) sorry for my english :D

I writed my own programm, that does manipulation with text and image, and rotates text around its center. It has been easier than I thought :D :D Thanks.
