NAME
     montage - creates a composite image by combining several
     separate images

SYNOPSIS
     montage [ options ...] file [ [ options ...] file ...]
     output_file

DESCRIPTION
     montage creates a composite image by combining several
     separate images.  The images are tiled on the composite
     image with the name of the image optionally appearing just
     below the individual tile.

     The composite image is constructed in the following manner.
     First, each image specified on the command line, except for
     the last, is scaled to fit the maximum tile size.  The
     maximum tile size by default is 120x120.  It can be modified
     with the -geometry command line argument or X resource.  See
     OPTIONS for more information on command line arguments. See
     X(1) for more information on X resources.  Note that the
     maximum tile size need not be a square.  To respect the
     aspect ratio of each image append ~ to the geometry
     specification.

     Next the composite image is initialized with the color
     specified by the -background command line argument or X
     resource.  The width and height of the composite image is
     determined by the title specified, the maximum tile size,
     the number of tiles per row, the tile border width and
     height, the image border width, and the label height.  The
     number of tiles per row specifies how many images are to
     appear in each row of the composite image.  The default is
     to have 5 tiles in each row and 4 tiles in each column of
     the composite.  A specific value is specified with -tile.
     The tile border width and height, and the image border width
     defaults to the value of the X resource -borderwidth.  It
     can be changed with the -borderwidth or -geometry command
     line argument or X resource.  The label height is determined
     by the font you specify with the -font command line argument
     or X resource.  If you do not specify a font, a font is
     chosen that allows the name of the image to fit the maximum
     width of a tiled area.  The label colors is determined by
     the -background and -foreground command line argument or X
     resource.  Note, that if the background and foreground
     colors are the same, labels will not appear.

     Initially, the composite image title is placed at the top if
     one is specified (refer to -foreground X resource).  Next,
     each image is set onto the composite image, surrounded by
     its border color, with its name centered just below it.  The
     individual images are left-justified within the width of the

     tiled area.  The order of the images is the same as they
     appear on the command line unless the images have a scene
     keyword.  If a scene number is specified in each image, then
     the images are tiled onto the composite in the order of
     their scene number.  Finally, the last argument on the
     command line is the name assigned to the composite image.
     By default, the image is written in the MIFF format and can
     be viewed or printed with display(1).

     Note, that if the number of tiles exceeds the default number
     of 20 (5 per row, 4 per column), more than one composite
     image is created. To ensure a single image is produced, use
     -tile to increase the number of tiles to meet or exceed the
     number of input images.

     Finally, Finally, to create one or more empty spaces in the
     sequence of tiles, use the NULL image format.

EXAMPLES
     To create a montage of a cockatoo, a parrot, and a
     hummingbird and write it to a file called birds, use:

          montage cockatoo.miff parrot.miff hummingbird.miff birds.miff

     To tile several bird images so that they are at most 256
     pixels in width and 192 pixels in height, surrounded by a
     red border, and separated by 10 pixels of background color,
     use:

          montage -geometry 256x192+10+10 -bordercolor red birds.* montage.miff

     To create an unlabeled parrot image, 640 by 480 pixels, and
     surrounded by a border of black, use:

          montage -geometry 640x480 -bordercolor black -label "" parrot.miff bird.miff

     To create an image of an eagle with a textured background,
     use:

          montage -texture bumps.jpg eagle.jpg eagle.png

     To join several GIF images together without any extraneous
     graphics (e.g. no label, no shadowing, no surrounding tile
     frame), use:

       montage +frame +shadow +label -geometry 50x50+0+0 -tile 5x1 *.gif joined.gif

OPTIONS
     -adjoin
          join images into a single multi-image file.

     -blur x
          blue the image with a gaussian operator of the given
          radius and standard deviation (sigma).

     -cache threshold
          megabytes of memory available to the pixel cache.

          Image pixels are stored in memory until 80 megabytes of
          memory have been consumed.  Subsequent pixel operations
          are cached on disk.  Operations to memory are
          significantly faster but if your computer does not have
          a sufficient amount of free memory you may want to
          adjust this threshold value.

     -colors value
          preferred number of colors in the image

          The actual number of colors in the image may be less
          than your request, but never more.  Note, this is a
          color reduction option.  Images with less unique colors
          than specified with this option will have any duplicate
          or unused colors removed.  Refer to quantize(9) for
          more details.

          Note, options -dither, -colorspace, and -treedepth
          affect the color reduction algorithm.

     -colorspace value
          the type of colorspace: GRAY, OHTA, RGB, Transparent,
          XYZ, YCbCr, YIQ, YPbPr, YUV, or CMYK.

          Color reduction, by default, takes place in the RGB
          color space.  Empirical evidence suggests that
          distances in color spaces such as YUV or YIQ correspond
          to perceptual color differences more closely than do
          distances in RGB space.  These color spaces may give
          better results when color reducing an image.  Refer to
          quantize(9) for more details.

          The Transparent color space behaves uniquely in that it
          preserves the matte channel of the image if it exists.

          The -colors or -monochrome option is required for this
          option to take effect.

     -comment string
          annotate an image with a comment.

          By default, each image is commented with its file name.
          Use this option to assign a specific comment to the
          image.  Optionally you can include the image filename,
          type, width, height, or other image attributes by

          embedding special format characters:

              %b   file size
              %d   directory
              %e   filename extention
              %f   filename
              %h   height
              %i   input filename
              %l   label
              %m   magick
              %n   number of scenes
              %o   output filename
              %p   page number
              %q   quantum depth
              %s   scene number
              %t   top of filename
              %u   unique temporary filename
              %w   width
              %x   x resolution
              %y   y resolution
              \n   newline
              \r   carriage return

          For example,

               -comment "%m:%f %wx%h"

          produces an image comment of MIFF:bird.miff 512x480 for
          an image titled bird.miff and whose width is 512 and
          height is 480.

          If the first character of string is @, the image
          comment is read from a file titled by the remaining
          characters in the string.

     -compose operator
          the type of image composition.

          By default, each of the composite image pixels are
          replaced by the corresponding image tile pixel. You can
          choose an alternate composite operation:

              Over
              In
              Out
              Atop
              Xor
              Plus
              Minus
              Add
              Subtract
              Difference

              Bumpmap
              Replace
              ReplaceRed
              ReplaceGreen
              ReplaceBlue
              ReplaceMatte

          The operations behaves as follows:

     Over The result will be the union of the two image shapes,
          with composite image obscuring image in the region of
          overlap.

     In   The result is simply composite image cut by the shape
          of composite image window.  None of the image data of
          image will be in the result.

     Out  The resulting image is composite image with the shape
          of image cut out.

     Atop The result is the same shape as image image, with
          composite image obscuring image where the image shapes
          overlap.  Note this differs from over because the
          portion of composite image outside image's shape does
          not appear in the result.

     Xor  The result is the image data from both composite image
          and image that is outside the overlap region.  The
          overlap region will be blank.

     Plus The result is just the sum of the image data.  Output
          values are cropped to 255 (no overflow).  This
          operation is independent of the matte channels.

     Minus
          The result of composite image - image, with underflow
          cropped to zero.  The matte channel is ignored (set to
          255, full coverage).

     Add  The result of composite image + image, with overflow
          wrapping around (mod 256).

     Subtract
          The result of composite image - image, with underflow
          wrapping around (mod 256).  The add and subtract
          operators can be used to perform reversible
          transformations.

     Difference
          The result of abs(composite image - image).  This is
          useful for comparing two very similar images.

     Bumpmap
          The result of image shaded by composite image.

     Replace
          The resulting image is image replaced with composite
          image.  Here the matte information is ignored.

     ReplaceRed
          The resulting image is the red layer in image replaced
          with the red layer in composite image.  The other
          layers are copied untouched.

     ReplaceGreen
          The resulting image is the green layer in image
          replaced with the green layer in composite image.  The
          other layers are copied untouched.

     ReplaceBlue
          The resulting image is the blue layer in image replaced
          with the blue layer in composite image.  The other
          layers are copied untouched.

     ReplaceMatte
          The resulting image is the matte layer in image
          replaced with the matte layer in composite image.  The
          other layers are copied untouched.

          The image compositor requires a matte, or alpha channel
          in the image for some operations.  This extra channel
          usually defines a mask which represents a sort of a
          cookie-cutter for the image.  This is the case when
          matte is 255 (full coverage) for pixels inside the
          shape, zero outside, and between zero and 255 on the
          boundary.  If image does not have a matte channel, it
          is initialized with 0 for any pixel matching in color
          to pixel location (0,0), otherwise 255 (to work
          properly borderwidth must be 0).

     -compress type
          the type of image compression: None, BZip, Fax, Group4,
          JPEG, LZW, RunlengthEncoded, or Zip.

          Specify +compress to store the binary image in an
          uncompressed format.  The default is the compression
          type of the specified image file.

     -crop x{+-}{+-}{%}
          preferred size and location of the cropped image.  See
          X(1) for details about the geometry specification.

          To specify a percentage width or height instead, append
          %.  For example to crop the image by ten percent on all

          sides of the image, use -crop 10%.

          Omit the x and y offset to generate one or more
          subimages of a uniform size.

          Use cropping to crop a particular area of an image.
          Use -crop 0x0 to trim edges that are the background
          color.  Add an x and y offset to leave a portion of the
          trimmed edges with the image.  The equivalent X
          resource for this option is cropGeometry (class
          CropGeometry).  See X RESOURCES for details.

     -density x
          vertical and horizontal resolution in pixels of the
          image.

          This option specifies an image density when decoding a
          Postscript or Portable Document page.  The default is
          72 pixels per inch in the horizontal and vertical
          direction.  This option is used in concert with -page.

     -display host:display[.screen]
          specifies the X server to contact; see X(1).

          Specify +display if an X server is not available.  The
          label font is obtained from the X server.  If none is
          available, the composite image will not have labels.
          Since the X server is necessary to read X resources,
          all options must be set via the command line when
          +display is specified.

     -dispose method
          GIF disposal method.

          Here are the valid methods:

               0     No disposal specified.
               1     Do not dispose between frames.
               2     Overwrite frame with background color from header.
               3     Overwrite with previous frame.

     -dither
          apply Floyd/Steinberg error diffusion to the image.

          The basic strategy of dithering is to trade intensity
          resolution for spatial resolution by averaging the
          intensities of several neighboring pixels.  Images
          which suffer from severe contouring when reducing
          colors can be improved with this option.

          The -colors or -monochrome option is required for this
          option to take effect.

          Use +dither to render Postscript without text or
          graphic aliasing.

     -draw string
          annotate an image with one or more graphic primitives.

          Use this option to annotate an image with one or more
          graphic primitives.  The primitives include

               rectangle
               circle
               ellipse
               polygon
               color
               matte
               text
               image

          Rectangle, color, matte, text, and image require an
          upper left and lower right coordinate.  Circle requires
          the center coordinate and a coordinate on the outer
          edge.  Use Ellipse to draw a partial ellipse centered
          at the given point, specified width and height, and
          start and end of arc in degrees (e.g. 100,100 100,150
          0,360). Finally, polygon requires three or more
          coordinates defining its boundaries.  Coordinates are
          integers separated by an optional comma.  For example,
          to define a circle centered at 100,100 that extends to
          150,150 use:

               -draw 'circle 100,100 150,150'

          Use color to change the color of a pixel.  Follow the
          pixel coordinate with a method:

               point
               replace
               floodfill
               filltoborder
               reset

          Consider the target pixel as that specified by your
          coordinate.  The point method recolors the target
          pixel.  The replace method recolors any pixel that
          matches the color of the target pixel.  Floodfill
          recolors any pixel that matches the color of the target
          pixel and is a neighbor.  Whereas filltoborder recolors
          any neighbor pixel that is not the border color.
          Finally, reset recolors all pixels.

          Use matte to the change the pixel matte value to
          transparent.  Follow the pixel coordinate with a method

          (see the color primitive for a description of methods).
          The point method changes the matte value of the target
          pixel.  The replace method changes the matte value of
          any pixel that matches the color of the target pixel.
          Floodfill changes the matte value of any pixel that
          matches the color of the target pixel and is a
          neighbor. Whereas filltoborder changes the matte value
          of any neighbor pixel that is not the border color.
          Finally reset changes the matte value of all pixels.

          Use text to annotate an image with text.  Follow the
          text coordinates with a string.  If the string has
          embedded spaces, enclose it in double quotes.
          Optionally you can include the image filename, type,
          width, height, or other image attributes by embedding
          special format characters.  See -comment for details.

          For example,

               -draw 'text 100,100 "%m:%f %wx%h"'

          annotates the image with MIFF:bird.miff 512x480 for an
          image titled bird.miff and whose width is 512 and
          height is 480.  To generate a Unicode character
          (TrueType fonts only), embed the code as an escaped hex
          string (e.g. \0x30a3).

          If the first character of the string is @, the text is
          read from a file titled by the remaining characters in
          the string.

          Use image to composite an image with another image.
          Follow the image coordinates with the image size and
          filename:

               -draw 'image 100,100 225,225 image.jpg'

          If the first character of string is @, the text is read
          from a file titled by the remaining characters in the
          string.

          You can set the primitive color, font color, and font
          bounding box color with -pen, -font, and -box
          respectively.  Options are processed in command line
          order so be sure to use -pen before the -draw option.

     -filter type
          use this type of filter when resizing an image.

          Use this option to affect the resizing operation of an
          image (see -geometry).  Choose from these filters:

               Point
               Box
               Triangle
               Hermite
               Hanning
               Hamming
               Blackman
               Gaussian
               Quadratic
               Cubic
               Catrom
               Mitchell
               Lanczos
               Bessel
               Sinc

          The default filter is Lanczos.

     -frame
          surround the image with an ornamental border.

          The color of the border is specified with the
          -mattecolor command line option.  If no frame is
          desired, use +frame.

     -font name
          use this font when annotating the image with text.

          If the font is a fully qualified X server font name,
          the font is obtained from an X server (e.g. -*-
          helvetica-medium-r-*-*-12-*-*-*-*-*-iso8859-*).  To use
          a TrueType font, precede the TrueType filename with a @
          (e.g.  @times.ttf).  Otherwise, specify a Postscript
          font (e.g. helvetica).

     -gamma value
          level of gamma correction.

          The same color image displayed on two different
          workstations may look different due to differences in
          the display monitor.  Use gamma correction to adjust
          for this color difference.  Reasonable values extend
          from 0.8 to 2.3.

          You can apply separate gamma values to the red, green,
          and blue channels of the image with a gamma value list
          delineated with slashes (i.e. 1.7/2.3/1.2).

          Use +gamma to set the image gamma level without
          actually adjusting the image pixels.  This option is
          useful if the image is of a known gamma but not set as

          an image attribute (e.g. PNG images).

offset>{%}{!}{<}{>}
     -geometry x{+-}{+-} to change the dimensions of the image only if its
          size exceeds the geometry specification.  < resizes the
          image only if its dimensions is less than the geometry
          specification.  For example, if you specify 640x480>
          and the image size is 512x512, the image size does not
          change.  However, if the image is 1024x1024, it is
          resized to 640x480.

          Each image is surrounded by a border whose size in
          pixels is specified as  and  and whose color is the background color.  By
          default, the tile size is 256x256 and there is no
          border.

          The equivalent X resource for this option is
          imageGeometry (class ImageGeometry).  See X RESOURCES
          for details.

     -gravity direction
          direction image gravitates to within a tile.  See X(1)
          for details about the gravity specification.

          A tile of the composite image is a fixed width and
          height.  However, the image within the tile may not
          fill it completely (see -geometry).  The direction you
          choose specifies where to position the image within the
          tile.  For example Center gravity forces the image to
          be centered within the tile.  By default, the image
          gravity is Center.

     -interlace type
          the type of interlacing scheme: None, Line, Plane, or
          Partition.  The default is None.

          This option is used to specify the type of interlacing

          scheme for raw image formats such as RGB or YUV.  No
          means do not interlace (RGBRGBRGBRGBRGBRGB...), Line
          uses scanline interlacing
          (RRR...GGG...BBB...RRR...GGG...BBB...), and Plane uses
          plane interlacing (RRRRRR...GGGGGG...BBBBBB...).
          Partition is like plane except the different planes are
          saved to individual files (e.g.  image.R, image.G, and
          image.B).

          Use Line, or Plane to create an interlaced GIF or
          progressive JPEG image.

     -label name
          assign a label to an image.

          By default, each image is labeled with its file name.
          Use this option to assign a specific label to the
          image.   Optionally you can include the image filename,
          type, width, height, or other image attributes by
          embedding special format characters.  See -comment for
          details.

          For example,

               -label "%m:%f %wx%h"

          produces an image label of MIFF:bird.miff 512x480 for
          an image titled bird.miff and whose width is 512 and
          height is 480.

          If the first character of string is @, the image label
          is read from a file titled by the remaining characters
          in the string.

     -matte
          store matte channel if the image has one otherwise
          create an opaque one.

     -mode type
          the type of montage: Frame, Unframe, Concatentate.  The
          default is Unframe.

          This option is for convenience.  You can obtain the
          desired result by setting individual options (e.g.
          Unframe is equivalent to +frame +shadow +borderwidth).

     -monochrome
          transform the image to black and white.

     -page x{+-}{+-
          }{%}{!}{<}{>}
          preferred size and location of an image canvas.

          Use this option to specify the dimensions of the
          Postscript page in dots per inch or a TEXT page in
          pixels.  The choices for a Postscript page are:

                 11x17         792  1224
                 Ledger       1224   792

          For convenience you can specify the page size by media
          (e.g.  A4, Ledger, etc.).  Otherwise, -page behaves
          much like -geometry (e.g. -page letter+43+43>).

          To position a GIF image, use -page {+-}{+-} (e.g. -page +100+200).

          For a Postscript page, the image is sized as in
          -geometry and positioned relative to the lower left

          hand corner of the page by {+-}{+-}.  Use -page 612x792>, for example, to center
          the image within the page.  If the image size exceeds
          the Postscript page, it is reduced to fit the page.

          The default page dimensions for a TEXT image is
          612x792.

          This option is used in concert with -density.

     -pen color
          set the color of the font.

          See X(1) for details about the color specification.

     -pointsize value
          pointsize of the Postscript font.

     -quality value
          JPEG/MIFF/PNG compression level.

          For the JPEG image format, quality is 0 (worst) to 100
          (best).  The default quality is 75.

          Quality for the MIFF and PNG image format sets the
          amount of image compression (quality / 10) and filter-
          type (quality % 10).  Compression quality values range
          from 0 (worst) to 100 (best).  If filter-type is 4 or
          less, the specified filter-type is used for all
          scanlines:

              0: none
              1: sub
              2: up
              3: average
              4: Paeth

          If filter-type is 5, adaptive filtering is used when
          quality is greater than 50 and the image does not have
          a color map, otherwise no filtering is used.

          If filter-type is 6 or more, adaptive filtering with
          minimum-sum-of-absolute-values is used.

          The default is quality is 75.  Which means nearly the
          best compression with adaptive filtering.

          For further information, see the PNG specification (RFC
          2083), .

     -rotate degrees{<}{>}
          apply Paeth image rotation to the image.

          Use > to rotate the image only if its width exceeds the
          height.  < rotates the image only if its width is less
          than the height.  For example, if you specify -90> and
          the image size is 480x640, the image is not rotated by
          the specified angle.  However, if the image is 640x480,
          it is rotated by -90 degrees.

          Empty triangles left over from rotating the image are
          filled with the color defined as bordercolor (class
          borderColor).

     -scene value
          image scene number.

     -shadow
          add a shadow beneath a tile to simulate depth.

     -sharpen x
          sharpen the image with a gaussian operator of the given
          radius and standard deviation (sigma).

     -size x{+offset}
          width and height of the image.

          Use this option to specify the width and height of raw
          images whose dimensions are unknown such as GRAY, RGB,
          or CMYK.  In addition to width and height, use -size to
          skip any header information in the image or tell the
          number of colors in a MAP image file, (e.g. -size
          640x512+256).

     -texture filename
          name of texture to tile onto the image background.

     -tile x
          specifies how many tiles are to appear in each row and
          column of the composite image.

          Specify the number of tiles per row with width and
          tiles per column with height.  For example if you want
          1 tile in each row and a maximum of 10 tiles in the
          composite image, use -tile 1x10.  The default is to
          have 5 tiles in each row and 4 tiles in each column of
          the composite.

     -transparency color
          make this color transparent within the image.

     -treedepth value
          Normally, this integer value is zero or one.  A zero or
          one tells montage to choose a optimal tree depth for
          the color reduction algorithm.

          An optimal depth generally allows the best
          representation of the source image with the fastest
          computational speed and the least amount of memory.
          However, the default depth is inappropriate for some
          images.  To assure the best representation, try values
          between 2 and 8 for this parameter.  Refer to
          quantize(9) for more details.

          The -colors or -monochrome option is required for this
          option to take effect.

     -verbose
          print detailed information about the image.

          This information is printed: image scene number;  image
          name;  image size; the image class (DirectClass or
          PseudoClass);  the total number of unique colors;  and
          the number of seconds to read and write the image.

     In addition to those listed above, you can specify these
     standard X resources as command line options:  -background,
     -bordercolor, -borderwidth, -font, -foreground, -mattecolor,
     or -title.  See X RESOURCES for details.

     Options are processed in command line order.  Any option you
     specify on the command line remains in effect until it is
     explicitly changed by specifying the option again with a
     different effect.  For example, to montage two images, the
     first with 32 colors and the second with only 16 colors,
     use:

          montage -colors 32 cockatoo.1 -colors 16 cockatoo.2
     cockatoo.miff

     By default, the image format is determined by its magic
     number. To specify a particular image format, precede the
     filename with an image format name and a colon (i.e.
     ps:image) or specify the image type as the filename suffix
     (i.e. image.ps).  See convert(1) for a list of valid image
     formats.

     When you specify X as your image type, the filename has
     special meaning.  It specifies an X window by id, name, or
     root.  If no filename is specified, the window is selected
     by clicking the mouse in the desired window.

     Specify input_file as - for standard input, output_file as -
     for standard output.  If input_file has the extension .Z or
     .gz, the file is uncompressed with uncompress or gunzip
     respectively.  If output_file has the extension .Z or .gz,
     the file size is compressed using with compress or gzip
     respectively.  Finally, precede the image file name with |

     to pipe to or from a system command.

     Use an optional index enclosed in brackets after a file name
     to specify a desired subimage of a multi-resolution image
     format like Photo CD (e.g. img0001.pcd[4]) or a range for
     MPEG images (e.g. video.mpg[50-75]).  A subimage
     specification can be disjoint (e.g. image.tiff[2,7,4]).  For
     raw images, specify a subimage with a geometry (e.g.  -size
     640x512 image.rgb[320x256+50+50]).

     Single images are written with the filename you specify.
     However, multi-part images (e.g. a multi-page Postscript
     document with +adjoin specified) are written with the
     filename followed by a period (.) and the scene number.  You
     can change this behavior by embedding a printf format
     specification in the file name.  For example,

          image%02d.miff

     montages files image00.miff, image01.miff, etc.

     Prepend an at sign (@) to a filename to read a list of image
     filenames from that file.  This is convenient in the event
     you have too many image filenames to fit on the command
     line.

     Note, a composite MIFF image displayed to an X server with
     display behaves differently than other images.  You can
     think of the composite as a visual image directory.  Choose
     a particular tile of the composite and press a button to
     display it.  See display(1) and miff(5) for details.

X RESOURCES
     montage options can appear on the command line or in your X
     resource file.  Options on the command line supersede values
     specified in your X resource file.  See X(1) for more
     information on X resources.

     All montage options have a corresponding X resource.  In
     addition, montage uses the following X resources:

     background (class Background)
          Specifies the preferred color to use for the composite
          image background.  The default is #ccc.

     borderColor (class BorderColor)
          Specifies the preferred color to use for the composite
          image border.  The default is #ccc.

     borderWidth (class BorderWidth)
          Specifies the width in pixels of the composite image
          border.  The default is 2.

     font (class Font)
          Specifies the name of the preferred font to use when
          displaying text within the composite image.  The
          default is 9x15, fixed, or 5x8 determined by the
          composite image size.

     foreground (class Foreground)
          Specifies the preferred color to use for text within
          the composite image.  The default is black.

     matteColor (class MatteColor)
          Specify the color of an image frame.  A 3D  effect  is
          achieved  by using highlight and shadow colors derived
          from this color.  The default value is #ccc.

     title (class Title)
          This resource specifies the title to be placed at the
          top of the composite image.  The default is not to
          place a title at the top of the composite image.

ENVIRONMENT
     display
          To get the default host, display number, and screen.
