Install Imagemagick Windows

Sudo apt install imagemagick. To list all available version from the Ubuntu repositories, use the apt list command with the -a flag. Sudo apt list imagemagick -a. And to install a specific version of a package we specify it with the apt install command. For example, to install version 6.9.7.4 you would run the following command.

  • Download and install ImageMagick for Windows. Navigate in your browser to the Downloads area of the website of Imagick and scroll to the Windows zone.
  • 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:

Php

  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!

this is the only approach that worked for me:

user1608920user1608920

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
