OK, I've installed ImageMagick on my Panther system, but how do I use
it from WebObjects? Even Google couldn't help me...
Does someone have some example java code?

I am in need of a way to dynamically generate a JPG image from info
stored in a database. Basically I just need to be able to place text
on an existing background image, but it's going to be more involved
than just adding a watermark. I'll need to be able to place it in a
table format with different fonts and sizes, etc.
Some of the possibilities I've found so far are:
Quicktime for Java
JAI
ImageMagick (with JMagick <http://www.yeo.id.au/jmagick/>)
Batik <http://xml.apache.org/batik> (creating an SVG, then saving it
as a JPG)
The key is that the output needs to look good (antialiased, proper
wrapping, etc). It would be nice to create some kind of template
also.
So has anyone out there done something like this? Are there other
alternatives that might give a higher level approach to this without
costing a fortune? (Yes I know of ReportMill, but it's too damn
expensive.)
Thanks guys.
