I have been having some issues getting captions to work with imagemagick on an armhf machine. As per http://www.imagemagick.org/Usage/text/#caption_paragraphs I was trying to get the captions to read in from a file.
On my amd64 machine, the following works and prompts on stdin for the caption: convert -background lightblue -fill blue -pointsize 12 -size 320x caption:@- caption_file.gif On the armhf machine, it doesn't even wait for stdin, it just exits and caption file just contains the @- as the caption. Package version: amd64 8:6.8.9.9-7+b2 armhf 8:6.8.9.9-5+deb8u2 Imagemagick reports: amd64: Version: ImageMagick 6.8.9-9 Q16 x86_64 2016-04-08 http://www.imagemagick.org armhf: Version: ImageMagick 6.8.9-9 Q16 arm 2016-05-16 http://www.imagemagick.org Any ideas why the arm version doesn't appear to support reading from files with the @ notation? Cheers, Andrew.
