I was able to extract the desired pointsize and it worked.

Yes, underscore may be different size than space. But I'm not that picky, I do not need 1000% exact perfect match.
I just ran my program about 80 times and the result was perfect each time.
In my case, debug result matched the label ...

Where did you get that pointsize value of 32.25 ?
I forgot to mention: I batch process many images.
Every time there's a different random font, I have about 800 fonts.
So, each font will have a different final pointsize.

I just put my workaround together and it seems to work perfectly.

I use ...

I need to fit (justify) a text to the bottom of an image.
I use label interword-spacing fit, and it's great when there's just one single space in the text: "www.google.com (555)123-4567"
But, now I have multiple spaces: "www.google.com CALL (555) 123-4567"
I need the final text to be stretched like ...

Holy cow !!! Thanks a lot !!
Yes, I looked at 'shadow', but I was always adding the shadow before '-composite +repage'
The same thing with 'clone', I was adding it before the final step ('-composite +repage')
Thank you very much, problem solved.
Later edit: hmm, one small problem: final image ...

Final image is like this (used as watermark for video):
- transparent PNG, 1920x1080, text at bottom
- text is automatically fit to image width, using 'label' and 'interword-spacing'
- text is offset from border, using 'bordercolor transparent' and 'border'
- text has stroke
- text also needs to ...

No worries, looks like processing time is the same.
Thanks for pointing me in the right direction.

Yes, after about 5 minutes I get the same result: 141,471

I have newer version:

Managed to run the script.
But got result: 20 3
Top left corner, which is pretty much what I got using the standard imagemagick command.

I will try and let you know.

Metric - tried all.

"-similarity-threshold 0 -dissimilarity-threshold 1" - I will try this.
So far, tried -similarity-threshold from 0.2 to 0.99

Images are at different scales - no, they are not.
Small image is exracted from large image.
No resize was done on either image after extraction.

Images ...

Tried several things, metrics, a BAT script (don't remember the link right now), image crop, different similarity thresholds (some very low)... nothing helped.
The best result I got is a complete mismatch - it says found match at 0,4, which is obiously wrong.
The other results are taking too long or ...

Great, THANKS !!
Second one worked like a charm (with fx).
Thanks again !

I use ImageMagick 6.8.2-8 2013-02-09 Q16 under Windows 7 x64 SP1 Ultimate.
I 'm trying to apply Perspective distort, but I need to use width / height coordinates.
This works OK:
convert out_textured.jpg -alpha set -virtual-pixel transparent -distort Perspective 0,0,9,95,0,"%%h",0,"%%h","%%w","%%h ...
