[magick-users] Request for assistance creating CD/DVD image

[david at davidfavor.com]

I'm new to ImageMagick and require some assistance creating an
image to burn on a CD/DVD. Looks like the sequence is:

1) convert original jpg image to png image.

2) create a png mask image of the same dimensions as the original image with:
   a) xc:black
   b) -fill white
   c) circle of CD/DVD dimensions
   d) position white circle over image part to be extracted

3) convert original-image -compose dst-in mask-image with -repage to produce:
   a) square image
   b) transparent outer area
   c) image to be transfered to CD/DVD

4) sharpen, lighten image.

5) compress image into gif with lowest number of colors, to optimize
   transfer speed to USB DVD burner/printer.

6) write required text in an arc across top and bottom of DVD image in
   color represented by one of the colors in the gif map.

If anyone has a script or suggestions for how to do this, please pass
it along. While I generally understand the sequence, figuring out the
syntax is a bit challenging.

Many thanks!

David.
