“Installing ImageMagik on Unix/Linux” 1

Posted by Piyush Gupta on July 15, 2010

Follow the below steps

wget ftp://ftp.imagemagick.org/pub/ImageMagick/ImageMagick.tar.gz

Next configure and compile ImageMagick:

tar xvfz ImageMagick.tar.gz
cd ImageMagick-6.6.3
./configure
make

If ImageMagick configured and compiled without complaint, you are ready to install it on your system. Administrator privileges are required to install. To install, type

sudo make install

Finally, verify the ImageMagick install worked properly, type

/usr/local/bin/convert logo: logo.gif

For a more comprehensive test, run the ImageMagick validation suite. Ghosts cript is a prerequisite, otherwise the EPS, PS, and PDF tests will fail.

make check
