ImageMagick now depends on an external file, delegates.mgk.  If certain
ImageMagick commands fails, check this file and verify it is valid for
your environment.  For details beyond this document, see README.txt and
ImageMagick.html.

Unix:

  Download

    ftp://www.wizards.dupont.com/pub/ImageMagick/ImageMagick-4.2.8.tar.gz

  and type

    gunzip -c ImageMagick-4.2.8.tar.gz | tar xvf -
    cd ImageMagick-4.2.8
    ./configure -enable-shared -enable-lzw -with-perl
    make
    make install
    convert -verbose logo: image.gif
    display image.gif

  Optionally, edit Magick.tmpl and type 

    xmkmf

  after the configure command above if you choose to use the X11 imake
  method to build ImageMagick.

  Alternatively, download the appropriate binary from
  ftp://www.wizards.dupont.com/pub/ImageMagick/binaries.

  If you downloaded just the binary distribution, you must move
  share/ImageMagick/delegates.mgk to
  /usr/local/share/ImageMagick/delegates.mgk or your home directory and
  ensure the permissions are set correctly (world-readable).  If the binary
  distribution is anywhere but /usr/local you will probably need to set
  the LD_LIBRARY_PATH and DELEGATE_PATH environment variables.  For example,

    setenv LD_LIBRARY_PATH ~/lib
    setenv DELEGATE_PATH ~/share/ImageMagick


NT:

  Download

    ftp://www.wizards.dupont.com/pub/ImageMagick/nt/ImageMagick-nt.zip

  and double click on it to extract the distribution.  Next, copy

    ImageMagick-4.2.8/ImageMagick-4.2.8/delegates/nt.mgk

  to

    c:\ImageMagick\delegates.mgk

  Select File->New->Folder to create c:\ImageMagick.  Use
  Copy/Paste/Rename to copy and rename nt.mgk to delegates.mgk.

  If you have an X server, change to directory
  ImageMagick-4.2.8/ImageMagick-4.2.8/bin and double-click on
  display.exe.  Otherwise, select Start->Programs->Command Prompt.  In
  the Command Prompt window type

    cd ImageMagick-4.2.8
    convert -verbose logo: image.gif
    convert image.gif win:

  Alternatively, download the ImageMagick NT source

    ftp://www.wizards.dupont.com/pub/ImageMagick/nt/ImageMagick-4.2.8.zip

  and double click on the ImageMagick Visual C++ project to build from
  the source.


Win95:

  Download

    ftp://www.wizards.dupont.com/pub/ImageMagick/binaries/ImageMagick-win95.zip

  and double click on it to extract the distribution.  Next, copy


    ImageMagick-4.2.8/delegates/win95.mgk

  to

    c:\ImageMagick\delegates.mgk

  Select File->New->Folder to create c:\ImageMagick.  Use
  Copy/Paste/Rename to copy and rename win95.mgk to delegates.mgk.

  If you have an X server, change to directory
  ImageMagick-4.2.8/ImageMagick-4.2.8/bin and double-click on
  display.exe.  Otherwise, select Start->Programs->MSDOS Prompt.  In
  the MSDOS Prompt window type

    cd c:\ImageMagick-4.2.8
    del delegates.mgk
    convert -verbose logo: image.gif
    convert image.gif win:

  Alternatively, download the ImageMagick Win95 source

    ftp://www.wizards.dupont.com/pub/ImageMagick/nt/ImageMagick-4.2.8.zip

  and double click on the ImageMagick Visual C++ project to build from
  the source.


MAC:

  Download

    ftp://www.wizards.dupont.com/pub/ImageMagick/mac/ImageMagick-mac.sit.hqx

  icon.  Next, type

    -verbose logo: image.gif

  in the command window and choose File->Quit to exit.  Double click on
  image.gif to see the results.

  Alternatively, download the ImageMagick MAC source

    ftp://www.wizards.dupont.com/pub/ImageMagick/mac/ImageMagick-4.2.8.sit.hqx

  and double click on the Make AppleScript script  to build from the source.
