Merge JPGs

mddolloff · 11-20-2004, 04:43 PM

I have been trying to merge some jpgs together and can't seem to find software that will allow me to do this in a batch fasion. I've got a lot of images and I just need to butt them up to each othere in a 2x2 tile fasion and save them off as a new image. I'm tried to use ImageMagick's montage command but that leaves a gap between the images and I can't figure out how to get rid of it. Any help you can provide would be great. Thanks.

Welcome to LQ.

Did you use the "-borderwidth 0" option? Are you sure your existing images don't have borders?

Yeah I am sure they don't have a border. They come up with no border when I open them individually in gimp. This is the command i am running.

And as a side note, the gap only exists vertically. The left and right edges bump against each other, but row one and two don't touch.

Alright i am a dork. I can't do division and for some reason decided to apply the wrong dimesions to the new image. I got it working now though.

Sometimes the obvious ones are the most difficult to spot, well done.
