[magick-users] How to add exif data to the actual pixels of the photo?

How do I use ImageMagick to read the date the photo was taken from exif data
and add it to the actual pixels of the photo?

I want to be able to run a batch script on a large number of files that
reads the date from each file and then prints that date onto the actual
picture, either by overlaying it onto the actual photo, or by adding a
caption underneath or above the photo.

So manually typing in the label text is not what the goal. I want the label
text to be read from the exif data.

Thanks

Steve
