[magick-users] Adding text to an image

[Greg Lindstrom]

Hello,

I am using 'convert' to add a claim number to a tif image and convert it to
a pdf image.  My problem is that the scans we are processing sometimes are
not ideally aligned and have a black border, so we can not read all of the
claim number.  Can I define a white background behind the claim number so I
can always read it?  How is that done?  If you could give a short
explination or point me to the appropriate documentation I would be
grateful.

Thanks,
