Hi,

I want to install imagemagick on my php webserver can anyone point me to a good 'how-to'? Or,... give me a few hints 😉

Thanks!

Hi,

which os, web server, php version do you use ? Is PHP installed as CGI or as e.g. an apache module ?

Shouldn't matter that much; in the absence of a PHP extension for Imagemagick, it would be a normal Imagemagick install and the program(s) would be called through system(), exec() etc. anyway.

Hi,

there is a extension you can download at

http://pecl.php.net/package/imagick

But this requires to recompile PHP. After that you have some ImageMagick functions.

Precompiled binaries can be downloaded here:
