If a png file can not be appended, atleast it can be written. How do I write images from 2 different png files to a single png file?

I tried

#!/usr/local/bin/perl   
use Image::Magick;
my($image, $p, $q);  
$image = new Image::Magick;  
$image->Read('d:\\d\\Graph.xls..PNG','d:\\d\\Sample.jpg');    
$image->Write('d:\\pimage.jpg');
[download]

but this writes the images to two files 'pimage.jpg.0' & 'pimage.jpg.1'(each having one image). I want both the images to be in a single png file. How do I get it?

Thanks & Regards

• Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
• Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:

  <code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>

• Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
