Image processing operations are available from the command line. Bindings to various programming languages are also available. &lfs70_checked; Package Information Download (HTTP): Download (FTP): Download MD5 sum: &imagemagick-md5sum; Download size: &imagemagick-size; Estimated disk space required: &imagemagick-buildsize; Estimated build time: &imagemagick-time; The ImageMagick source releases are updated frequently and the version shown above may no longer be available from the download locations. You can download a more recent version and use the existing BLFS instructions to install it. Chances are that it will work just fine, but this has not been tested by the BLFS team. If the package version shown above is not available from the locations shown above, or from the legacy/ directory at ftp.ImageMagick.org/pub/ImageMagick you can download it from the BLFS package server at . ImageMagick Dependencies Recommended The optional dependencies listed below should be installed if you need support for the specific format or the conversion tool the dependency provides. Many of the dependencies' capabilities and uses are described in the MAGICK DELEGATES section of the README.txt file located in the source tree. Additional information about the dependencies can be found in the Install-unix.txt file located in the source tree as well as issuing the ./configure --help command. A summary of this information, as well as some additional notes can be viewed on-line at . Optional System Utilities , or (or any other print utility that provides an lpr command), ufraw (only for raw formats listed in www/formats.html), Dmalloc, Electric Fence, PGP or or (you'll have to do some hacking to use GnuPG), , and Optional Graphics Libraries corefonts, FlashPIX (or FlashPIX library), , , JBIG-KIT, or lcms2, , , , , , , libwebp, and , DjVuLibre, and RALCGM Optional Graphics Utilities , GhostPCL, , Gnuplot, , POV-Ray, and Radiance Optional Conversion Tools AutoTrace, , hp2xx, html2ps, libwmf, MPEG-2 Video Codec, Netpbm, , Transfig, txt2html (requires Perl Module Getopt::ArgvFile), and Utah Raster Toolkit (or URT-3.1b) User Notes: Installation of ImageMagick Install Imagemagick by running the following commands: ./configure --prefix=/usr --sysconfdir=/etc \ --with-modules && make If you wish to build the PerlMagick perl module, use the following commands: cd PerlMagick && perl Makefile.PL && make && cd .. To test the results, issue: make check. Note that many of the tests require a working ghostscript and that most of the validate-*.sh tests fail when run from make check although they can be successfully run individually by chmod +x tests/common.sh && srcdir=$PWD VALIDATE=$PWD/tests/validate-compare.sh ;# and so forth Now, as the root user: make install And then, as the root user: make install And, if you built PerlMagick, still as the root user: make -C PerlMagick install Command Explanations --sysconfdir=/etc: Put the directory of xml (and .icc) files at /etc/ImageMagick instead of /usr/etc/ImageMagick. --with-modules: Enables support for dynamically loadable modules. : Enables support to use the Ghostscript shared library. : Enables support to use the FlashPix library. : This option specifies the directory where the Windows CoreFonts are installed. The options and parameters listed above are the only ones you should have to pass to the configure script to activate all the delegate dependencies. All other dependencies will be automatically detected and utilized in the build if they are installed. : This switch prevents the static libraries being built.

Magick-config mogrify transforms an image. mogrify montage composites various images into a new image. montage stream streams one or more pixel components of an image or portion of the image to your choice of storage formats. stream Wand-config shows the options required to use the Wand library. Wand-config Image::Magick allows the reading, manipulation and writing of a large number of image file formats using the ImageMagick library. Run make in the PerlMagick/demo directory of the package source tree after the package is installed to see a nice demo of the module's capabilities. Image::Magick
