We will also explain how to install WordPress manually using FTP for our intermediate users. Lastly, for our beginner developer and designers, we will show you how to install WordPress on a local computer (Windows, Mac, and Linux). Apart from showing you how to install WordPress, we will also give you tips on things to do after you install. FileZilla is a free FTP client which is available for most of the popular operating systems including Windows, Linux, and Mac OS. In order to use this FTP client, follow these steps: Download FileZilla to your local computer from the official project page at Install the client; Specify your FTP login details.

You can install ImageMagick from source. However, if you don't have a proper development environment or if you're anxious to get started, download a ready-to-run Linux or Windows executable. Before you download, you may want to review recent changes to the ImageMagick distribution.
ImageMagick source and binary distributions are available from a variety of FTP and Web mirrors around the world.
These are the Linux variations that we support. If your system is not on the list, try installing from source. Although ImageMagick runs fine on a single core computer, it automagically runs in parallel on multi-core systems reducing run times considerably.
Version | Description |
---|---|
magick | Complete portable application on Linux, no installation required. Just download and run. AppImages require FUSE and libc to run. Many distributions have a working FUSE setup out-of-the-box. However if it is not working for you, you must install and configure FUSE manually. |

ImageMagick RPM's are self-installing. Simply type the following command and you're ready to start using ImageMagick:
You'll need the libraries as well:
Note, if there are missing dependencies, install them from the EPEL repo.
For other systems, create (or choose) a directory to install the package into and change to that directory, for example:
Next, extract the contents of the package. For example:
Set the MAGICK_HOME
environment variable to the path where you extracted the ImageMagick files. For example:
If the bin
subdirectory of the extracted package is not already in your executable search path, add it to your PATH
environment variable. For example:
On Linux and Solaris machines add $MAGICK_HOME/lib
to the LD_LIBRARY_PATH
environment variable:
Finally, to verify ImageMagick is working properly, type the following on the command line:
Congratulations, you have a working ImageMagick distribution under Linux or Linux and you are ready to use ImageMagick to convert, compose, or edit your images or perhaps you'll want to use one of the Application Program Interfaces for C, C++, Perl, and others.
We recommend Homebrew which provides pre-built binaries for Mac (some users prefer MacPorts). Download HomeBrew and type:
ImageMagick depends on Ghostscript fonts. To install them, type:
The brew
command downloads and installs ImageMagick with many of its delegate libraries (e.g. JPEG, PNG, Freetype, etc). Homebrew no longer allows configurable builds; if you need different compile options (e.g. librsvg support), you can download the ImageMagick Mac OS X distribution we provide:

Finally, to verify ImageMagick is working properly, type the following on the command line:
Note, the display program requires the X11 server available on your Mac OS X installation DVD. Once that is installed, you will also need to set export DISPLAY=:0
.
The best way to deal with all the exports is to put them at the end of your .profile file
Congratulations, you have a working ImageMagick distribution under Mac OS X and you are ready to use ImageMagick to convert, compose, or edit your images or perhaps you'll want to use one of the Application Program Interfaces for C, C++, Perl, and others.
~Claudio provides iOS builds of ImageMagick.
You can download the iOS distribution directly from ImageMagick's repository.
There are always 2 packages for the compiled ImageMagick:
The first one includes headers and compiled libraries that have been used to compile ImageMagick. Most users would need this one.
To run the script:
where VERSION is the version of ImageMagick you want to compile (i.e.: 7.0.11-4, svn, ...)
This script compiles ImageMagick as a static library to be included in iOS projects and adds support for
Upon successful compilation a folder called IMPORT_ME
is created on your ~/Desktop
. You can import it into your Xcode project.
After including everything into Xcode please also make sure to have these settings (Build tab of the project information):
On the lower left click on the small-wheel and select: Add User-Defined Setting
A sample project 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 iOS application.
ImageMagick runs on Windows 10 (x86 & x64), Windows 8 (x86 & x64), Windows 7 (x86 & x64), Windows Server 2012, Windows Vista (x86 & x64) with Service Pack 2, Windows Server 2008 (x86 & x64) with Service Pack 2, and Windows Server 2008 R2 (x64).
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.
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 Q8 in the name are 8 bits-per-pixel component (e.g. 8-bit red, 8-bit green, etc.), whereas, Q16 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 dll in the filename include ImageMagick libraries as dynamic link libraries. Unless you have a Windows 32-bit OS, we recommend this version of ImageMagick for 64-bit Windows:
Version | Description |
---|---|
ImageMagick-7.0.11-4-Q16-HDRI-x64-dll.exe | Win64 dynamic at 16 bits-per-pixel component |
Or choose from these alternate Windows binary distributions:
