Install Imagemagick Windows

Posted By admin On 29.05.20

In this article, we will explain how to install and compile ImageMagick from source code in Debian and Ubuntu distributions. Installing Dependencies for ImageMagick To install ImageMagick from source, you need a proper development environment with a compiler and related development tools. ImageMagick is a robust collection of tools and libraries to read, write, and manipulate an image in many image formats including popular formats like TIFF, JPEG, PNG, PDF, PhotoCD, and GIF. With ImageMagick you can create images dynamically, making it suitable for Web applications. You can also resize, rotate, sharpen, color reduce, or add special effects to an image or image sequence. Installing ImageMagick on Windows - Setup Imagick on PHP Step 1: Do not download the latest version of ImageMagick. Step 2: After downloading it, install the binary. Step 3: After installation, run the 'convert' command from DOS mode. It should work. Step 4: We need to add one more environment. Lastly, install ImageMagick by executing: $ sudo make install The above command will install all previously compiled ImageMagick binaries on your system. Run ldconfig to link static libraries: $ sudo ldconfig /usr/local/lib All done. The Windows version of ImageMagick is self-installing. Simply click on the appropriate version below and it will launch itself and ask you a few installation questions. Versions with Q8 in the name are 8 bits-per-pixel component (e.g. 8-bit red, 8-bit green, etc.), whereas, Q16 in the filename are 16 bits-per-pixel component.

Contains the core ImageMagick sources in a file named similarly to ImageMagick-5.5.4.tar.gz, ImageMagick-5.5.4.tar.bz, or ImageMagick-5.5.4.zip. These core sources are sufficient to compile a minimal ImageMagick on a Unix system, or under the Cygwin and MinGW environments for Windows.

Here yo go, to install ImageMagick and build the RMagick gem and make it all work.

Follow below steps:

  1. Go here mirror images.
  2. Download ImageMagick of any version except the currently latest release, which has some issues
  3. Install it with options: Add to PATH and development headers. Installation path should not contain spaces.

  4. In the command line type convert -version to check if everything works. It should print something like:

    Version: ImageMagick 6.6.1-10 2010-05-15 Q16 http://www.imagemagick.orgCopyright: Copyright (C) 1999-2010 ImageMagick Studio LLCFeatures: OpenMP

  5. Install the DevKit if you haven't already.

  6. Install the rmagick gem: gem install rmagick --platform=ruby -- --with-opt-lib=c:/ruby192/ImageMagick/lib --with-opt-include=c:/ruby192/ImageMagick/include

(Making sure the paths point to wherever you installed imagemagick)

It should print

And after a few minutes if everything goes right, you should see

And that's it. Just two more links that were helpful: 1 blog and 2 blog if you still can't install

  • The first one is a path issue. There is a convert.exe that is gettingfound before the ImageMagick one.
  • The second one is because you don't have working build tools.

How to install ImageMagick on Windows 8.1, as of 5/1/2017:

  1. take a deep breath

  2. uninstall imagemagick/rmagick/everything that's failed so far

  3. make sure you have the DevKit that the accepted answer linked to

  4. Don't download the current v7 of ImageMagick. I have no idea why, but it doesn't work. Instead download ImageMagick-6.9.8-4-Q16-x86-dll.exe from here

  5. Install, including the headers. Since it's V6, it includes legacy utilities already so you don't have to worry about that. Install into your C: directory so there are no spaces in the path.
  6. Open up your environment variables. You know, System>advanced system settings>environment variables.
  7. Find PATH in system variables, edit and copy and paste the large variable value into a notepad or something so you can read it properly.
  8. Find ImageMagick's path, cut it out and paste it to the front. My PATH starts with 'C:ImageMagick-6.9.8-Q16;..' If it's not there, add it yourself.
  9. Update your PATH with ImageMagick at the front.
  10. You should be all setup, go into command prompt and type 'convert -version'. Rather than a 'Invalid drive specification' result which drove me insane, you should see the current version specifications.
  11. Bobs your uncle, you have ImageMagick!

Install ImageMagick windows binaries from https://sourceforge.net/projects/imagemagick/files/im6-exes/, findout where is it installed

Like

C:Program Files (x86)ImageMagick-6.7.9-Q16

or some other directory, depending upon your system..

And run following commands in command prompt

Replacing

C:Program Files (x86)ImageMagick-6.7.9-Q16

with directory where you actually installed Image Magick
