watermark or image watermark on top of
0:10
your images right in the terminal itself
0:12
using an open-source package which is
0:14
image magic So as you can see we have a
0:17
image and we are actually adding this
0:19
watermark text rotated in the center of
0:22

0:31

0:34

0:37
open-source package here If you go to

1:32
1.jpg which is a file name So we simply
1:35
write like this After that we simply
1:37
specify the font So we will be using
1:40
this aerial bold
1:42
font And
1:47
then for watermark image we first of all
1:50
provide the logo png So here we are
1:53
specifying this image right here which
1:55
we need to add
1:57
logo.png After that we specify the
1:59
position here So
2:02
gravity
2:03
southeast
2:06
geometry So we specify the coordinates
2:08
here 10 + 10
2:11
