"-draw" doesn't take expand escapes.

Alternatives include using "-annotate", which does expand escapes, or using environment variables.

No problems in Windows 7, IM 6.6.2-4 Q16 (64 bit):
(Edit: corrected typo in command line.)

Have you got the rsvg delegate?

There are many ways of doing this. Here is one (Windows script): Make a source file: convert logo: -fuzz 15%% -transparent White strokedIn.png Create a red "stroke" around the opaque parts, 20 pixels wide: convert ^ strokedIn.png ^ ( ^ +clone ^ -fill White -colorize 100%% ^ -background Bla...

For each input file, you might say:

convert infile NULL:

and check for non-zero returns.

So, your command is: convert -size 646x340 xc:none -fill red -draw "roundRectangle 5,5 646,340 20,20" -compose dstout -matte ( -size 636x330 xc:none -fill white -draw "roundRectangle 0,0 636,330 15,15" small.jpg -compose SrcIn -matte ) -gravity center -compose over -composite rou...

I wouldn't know a Photoshop stroke if it hit me in the face.

If you provide a before and after sample, someome might make a suggestion.

If you are getting a segmentation fault on all IM commands, something is badly wrong. How about just "convert", which should show help and exit?

I know nothing about Macs, but what is a "Macbook mini", "netbook"? How much memory?

For "-composite over", you probably meant "-compose over -composite". Here's a complete Windows script. rem Add a rounded corner by two different methods. set SRC=logo: set InRad=15 set OutRad=20 set BORDCOL=red FOR /F "usebackq" %%L IN (`identify -format "WW=%%w\n...

A debug printing of $cmd might help. The last "-composite" will have the previous "-compose" setting, which is "SrcIn", which might not be what you want. But the previous bracket has a "-compose" with no "-composite", which is suspicious. $cmd seems ...

What is PHP error 400? Perhaps IM can't find Ghostscript under PHP. Within PHP, are other conversions (eg from PNG) okay? If so, check the PHP configurarion.

If you post the URL of the original28x28.png, someone can try your commands with a more recent IM.

IM uses ffmpeg as a delegate for movie operations. It isn't exactly a dependancy, but if you don't have ffmpeg, IM can't do those operations.

On Windows, IM comes with ffmpeg. On other platforms, you have to install it yourself.

Suppose we have:

convert -size 100x100 xc:green g.png
convert -size 30x100 xc:blue b.png

We can put them side-by-side with no gap or border:

convert g.png b.png +append gb.png

We can do this with a 10-pixel red gap:

convert g.png b.png +append -background red -splice 10x0+100+0 gb.png

"-splice" is fairly new. What version IM are you on? You may need to upgrade.
