Option Summary
]
Use the
montage
program to create a composite image by combining several separate images.  The images are tiled on the composite image optionally adorned with a border, frame, image name, and more. See
../www/command-line-processing.html
Command Line Processing
for advice on how to structure your
montage
command or see below for example usages of the command.
Example Usage
We list a few examples of the
montage
command here to illustrate its usefulness and ease of use.  To get started, lets montage two images into a single composite:
montage -background #336699 -geometry +4+4 rose.jpg red-ball.png montage.jpg
../images/rose.jpg
rose
../images/red-ball.png
red ball
==>
../images/montage.jpg
montage
Ok, lets add some decorations:
montage -label %f -frame 5 -background #336699 -geometry +4+4 rose.jpg red-ball.png frame.jpg
../images/rose.jpg
rose.jpg
../images/red-ball.png
red ball
==>
../images/frame.jpg
frame
