vips has a text render operation too, for example:

  vips im_text fred.tif "hello world" "sans 12" 0 0 72

will render the text "hello world" into the image fred,tif in the font
sans 12, left-aligned, with no line wrapping, at 72 dpi. See:

  http://www.vips.ecs.soton.ac.uk/supported/7.14/doc/html/man/im_text.3.html
