Hi,
This isn't really a Gimp question, but I'm having trouble finding a better place to post it - please feel free to redirect me if appropriate. I've been feeding xml files to the Gegl command line application to process photos - applying a crop, doing rotations, compositing, adding text, etc. But now I've been asked to add dropshadows and strokes to the text. Dropshadows were easy... but it looks like to apply a stroke, I'd need to somehow define a path around the text. I've been all over the (somewhat sparse) documentation, but I can't find anything that even gives me a starting point on how to do that. Does anyone here have any suggestions for doing this in an automated fashion?
Thanks,
Jason
