<p>You can install ImageMagick from <a href="../www/install-source.html">source</a>. However, if don't have a proper development environment or if you're anxious to get started, download a ready-to-run <a href="#unix">Unix</a> or <a href="#windows">Windows</a> executable. Before you download, you may want to review recent <a href="../www/changelog.html">changes</a> to the ImageMagick distribution.</p>

<div class="doc-section">
<p>These are the Unix variations that we support. If your system is not on the list, try installing from <a href="../www/install-source.html">source</a>. Although ImageMagick runs fine on a single core computer, it automagically runs in parallel on dual and quad-core systems reducing run times considerably.</p>

<p>ImageMagick RPM's are self-installing. Simply type the following command and you're ready to start using ImageMagick:</p>
<p class='crt'><span class="crtprompt"> $magick> </span><span class='crtin'>rpm -Uvh ImageMagick-6.6.9-6.i386.rpm</span></p>
<p>For other systems, create (or choose) a directory to install the package into and change to that directory, for example:</p>
<p class='crt'><span class="crtprompt"> $magick> </span><span class='crtin'>cd $HOME</span></p>
<p>Next, extract the contents of the package. For example:</p>
<p class='crt'><span class="crtprompt"> $magick> </span><span class='crtin'>tar xvfz ImageMagick.tar.gz</span></p>
<p>Set the <kbd>MAGICK_HOME</kbd> environment variable to the path where you extracted the ImageMagick files. For example:</p>
<p class='crt'><span class="crtprompt"> $magick> </span><span class='crtin'>export MAGICK_HOME="$HOME/ImageMagick-6.6.9"</span></p>
<p>If the <kbd>bin</kbd> subdirectory of the extracted package is not already in your executable search path, add it to your <kbd>PATH</kbd> environment variable. For example:</p>
<p class='crt'><span class="crtprompt"> $magick> </span><span class='crtin'>export PATH="$MAGICK_HOME/bin:$PATH"</span></p>
<p>On Linux and Solaris machines add <kbd>$MAGICK_HOME/lib</kbd> to the <kbd>LD_LIBRARY_PATH</kbd> environment variable:</p>
<p class='crt'><span class="crtprompt"> $magick> </span><span class='crtin'>LD_LIBRARY_PATH="${LD_LIBRARY_PATH:+$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:}$MAGICK_HOME/lib"</span><span class='crtout'></span><span class="crtprompt"> $magick> </span><span class='crtin'>export LD_LIBRARY_PATH</span></p>
<p>Finally, to verify ImageMagick is working properly, type the following on the command line:</p>
<p class='crt'><span class="crtprompt"> $magick> </span><span class='crtin'>convert logo: logo.gif</span><span class='crtout'></span><span class="crtprompt"> $magick> </span><span class='crtin'>identify logo.gif</span><span class='crtout'></span><span class="crtprompt"> $magick> </span><span class='crtin'>display logo.gif</span></p>
<p>Congratulations, you have a working ImageMagick distribution under Unix or Linux and you are ready to use ImageMagick to <a href="http://www.imagemagick.org/Usage/">convert, compose, or edit</a> your images or perhaps you'll want to use one of the <a href="../www/api.html">Application Program Interfaces</a> for C, C++, Perl, and others.</p>

<h2><a id="macosx"></a>Mac OS X Binary Release</h2>
<div class="doc-section">
<p>We recommend <a href="http://www.macports.org">MacPorts</a> which custom builds ImageMagick in your environment. Download MacPorts and type:</p>
<p class='crt'><span class="crtprompt"> $magick> </span><span class='crtin'>sudo port install ImageMagick</span></p>
<p>The <kbd>port</kbd> command downloads ImageMagick and many of its delegate libraries (e.g. JPEG, PNG, Freetype, etc.) and configures, builds, and installs ImageMagick automagically. Alternatively, you can download the ImageMagick Mac OS X distribution we provide:</p>

<h2><a id="iPhone"></a>iPhone Binary Release</h2>
<div class="doc-section">
<p><a href="http://www.cloudgoessocial.net/2011/03/21/im-xcode4-ios4-3/">~Claudio</a> provides iPhone builds of ImageMagick.</p>
<h4>Download iPhone Distribution</h4>
<p>You can download the iPhone distribution directly from ImageMagick's <a href="ftp://ftp.imagemagick.org/pub/ImageMagick/iPhone/">repository</a>.</p>
<p>There are always 2 packages for the compiled ImageMagick:</p>
<ul>
<li>iPhoneMagick-VERSION-libs.zip</li>
<li>iPhoneMagick-VERSION.zip</li>
</ul>
<p>The first one includes headers and compiled libraries that have been used to compile ImageMagick. Most users would need this one.</p>
<h4>ImageMagick compiling script for iPhone OS and iPhone Simulator</h4>
<p>To run the script:</p>
<pre class="text">
./imagemagick_compile.sh <em>VERSION</em>
</pre>
<p>where <em>VERSION</em> is the version of ImageMagick you want to compile (i.e.: 6.6.9-6, svn, ...)</p>
<p>This script compiles ImageMagick as a static library to be included in iPhone projects and adds support for</p>
<ul>
<li>png</li>
<li>jpeg</li>
<li>tiff</li>
</ul>
<p>Upon successful compilation a folder called <kbd>IMPORT_ME</kbd> is created on your <kbd>~/Desktop</kbd>. You can import it into your XCode project.</p>
<h5>XCode project settings</h5>
<p>After including everything into XCode please also make sure to have these settings (Build tab of the project information):</p>
<ul>
<li>Other Linker Flags: -lMagickCore -lMagickWand -ljpeg -lpng -lbz2 -lz</li>
<li>Header Search Paths: $(SRCROOT) - make it Recursive</li>
<li>Library Search Paths: $(SRCROOT) - make it Recursive</li>
</ul>
<p>On the lower left click on the small-wheel and select: Add User-Defined Setting</p>
<ul>
<li>Key: OTHER_CFLAGS</li>
<li>Value: -Dmacinsoth=1</li>
</ul>
<h5>Sample project</h5>
<p>A <a href="http://www.cloudgoessocial.net/im_iphone/IM_Test.zip">sample project </a> is available for download. It is not updated too often, but it does give an idea of all the settings and some ways to play around with ImageMagick in an iPhone application.</p>

<h2><a id="windows"></a>Windows Binary Release</h2>
<div class="doc-section">
<p>ImageMagick runs on Windows XP (x86) with Service Pack 3, Windows Vista (x86 & x64) with Service Pack 2, Windows 7 (x86 & x64), Windows Server 2003 (x86 & x64) with Service Pack 2 (verify MSXML6 is present), Windows Server 2003 R2 (x86 & x64), Windows Server 2008 (x86 & x64) with Service Pack 2, and Windows Server 2008 R2 (x64).</p>
<p>The amount of memory can be an important factor, especially if you intend to work on large images. A minimum of 512 MB of RAM is recommended, but the more RAM the better. Although ImageMagick runs well on a single core computer, it automagically runs in parallel on multi-core systems reducing run times considerably.</p>
<p>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 <em>Q8</em> in the name are 8 bits-per-pixel component (e.g. 8-bit red, 8-bit green, etc.), whereas, <em>Q16</em> in the filename are 16 bits-per-pixel component. A Q16 version permits you to read or write 16-bit images without losing precision but requires twice as much resources as the Q8 version. Versions with <em>dll</em> in the filename include ImageMagick libraries as <a href="http://www.answers.com/topic/dll">dynamic link libraries</a>. If you are not sure which version is appropriate, choose
<a href='http://www.imagemagick.org/download/binaries/ImageMagick-6.6.9-6-Q16-windows-dll.exe'>ImageMagick-6.6.9-6-Q16-windows-dll.exe</a>.</p>

<p>To verify ImageMagick is working properly, type the following in an MS-DOS Command Prompt window:</p>
<p class='crt'><span class="crtprompt"> $magick> </span><span class='crtin'>convert logo: logo.gif</span><span class='crtout'></span><span class="crtprompt"> $magick> </span><span class='crtin'>identify logo.gif</span><span class='crtout'></span><span class="crtprompt"> $magick> </span><span class='crtin'>imdisplay</span></p>
<p>If you have any problems, install the <a href="http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?familyid=A7B7A05E-6DE6-4D3A-A423-37BF0912DB84">Visual C++ 2010 Redistributable Package (x86)</a> or <a href="http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?familyid=BD512D9E-43C8-4655-81BF-9350143D5867">Visual C++ 2010 Redistributable Package (x64)</a>. 64-bit Windows requires both packages (x86 & x64).</p>
<p>Congratulations, you have a working ImageMagick distribution under Windows and you are ready to use ImageMagick to <a href="http://www.imagemagick.org/Usage/">convert, compose, or edit</a> your images or perhaps you'll want to use one of the <a href="../www/api.html">Application Program Interfaces</a> for C, C++, Perl, and others.</p>
