The resizing occurs to the last image in the sequence when using -geometry without a size. You may be better off using -page ... -flatten. But -page is not gravity sensitive.
Or you might try using -geometry 100x100%+x+y and see if that preserves the size of the last image. I have not tried this to be sure it works. See http://www.imagemagick.org/Usage/layers/#convert http://www.imagemagick.org/Usage/layers/#flatten From the first link: "Now the "-geometry" is is a very special operator that not only sets an overlay position for the next "-composite" operation, it also "-resize" the last image (and only the last image) in the current image sequence." >Hello image gurus, > >I've spent a couple hours trying to get text in regions of a square >background.
