14 The montage program is a member of the ImageMagick(1) suite of tools.
15 Use it to create a composite image by combining several separate im‐
16 ages. The images are tiled on the composite image optionally adorned
17 with a border, frame, image name, and more.

157 In addition to those listed above, you can specify these standard X re‐
159 sources as command line options: -background, -bordercolor, -border‐
160 width, -font, -mattecolor, or -title.
161 By default, the image format of `file' is determined by its magic num‐
163 ber. To specify a particular image format, precede the filename with
164 an image format name and a colon (i.e. ps:image) or specify the image
165 type as the filename suffix (i.e. image.ps). Specify 'file' as '-' for
166 standard input or output.
