[magick-users] Montage - simple resolution question.

[gertjan hofman]

Dear ImageMagick users

This is probably a trivial question, but I just can not get montage to
do the simplest things.

I have 4 gif images, 600x200 pixels. I would like them stacked on a
page (1 colum, 4 rows). No matter what option
(density, page size, geometry, resample) i play with the result is
always that the images are resampled at very low resolution into the
output file

i.e. the original 600x200 resolution is lost.

I have tried things like:
   montage d1.gif d2.gif d3.gif d4.gif -page A4 -tile 1x4 -geometry
+2+2 hello.ps

or adding -density 100 etc. I can change the overal output file size,
but I always end up with fuzzy images on a page.

It doesn't really matter what the starting images are or what format.
I am missing some fundamental understanding of what montage is doing.

Can someone post a simple example for me ?

Much appreciated,

Gertjan
