New Post: Compound Font Effects

Hi

I'm just running through and trying to convert some commands to be used in Magick.net.

How is the best way to do this very simple tile texture.
http://www.imagemagick.org/Usage/fonts/

convert -size 320x100 xc:lightblue -font Candice -pointsize 72 \
           -tile pattern:checkerboard   -annotate +28+68 'Anthony' \
           font_tile.jpg

It's really the tiling I think I have an issue with. I realize that you can generate gradients & patterns in a constructor but having problem figuring out how to mask it like the example.

Anyone got an example how to do this?

Thanks
