In either case, you can type the following to find out:</p> 87 88<pre class="highlight"><code>identify -version 89</code></pre> 90 91<p>If the <a href="identify.html">identify</a> program executes and identifies itself as ImageMagick, you may not need to install ImageMagick from source unless you want to add support for additional image formats or upgrade to a newer version. You also have the option of installing a pre-compiled <a href="../www/download.html">binary release</a>. However, if you still want to install from source, choose a platform, <a href="install-source.html#unix">Unix</a> or <a href="install-source.html#windows">Windows</a>. Before installing from source, you may want to review recent <a href="changelog.html">changes</a> to the ImageMagick distribution.</p> 92 93<p>The authoritative source code repository is <a href="https://github.com/ImageMagick">https://github.com/ImageMagick</a>. We maintain a source code mirror at <a href="https://git.imagemagick.org/repos/ImageMagick">https://git.imagemagick.org/repos/ImageMagick</a>. We test and deploy ImageMagick with <a href="https://travis-ci.org/ImageMagick">Travis CI</a> and <a href="https://ci.appveyor.com/project/dlemstra/imagemagick-windows">AppVeyor</a>.</p> 94 95<h2><a class="anchor" id="unix"></a>Install from Unix Source</h2> 96 97<p>ImageMagick builds on a variety of Unix and Unix-like operating systems including Linux, Solaris, FreeBSD, Mac OS X, and others. A compiler is required and fortunately almost all modern Unix systems have one. Download <a href="https://imagemagick.org/download/ImageMagick.tar.gz">ImageMagick.tar.gz</a> from <a href="../download">imagemagick.org</a> or a <a href="mirror.html">mirror</a> and verify its <a href="https://imagemagick.org/download/digest.rdf">message digest</a>.</p> 98 99<p>Unpack the distribution with this command:</p> 100 101<pre class="highlight"><code>tar xvzf ImageMagick.tar.gz 102</code></pre> 103 104<p>Next configure and compile ImageMagick. Note the <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pkg-config">pkg-config</a> script is required so that ImageMagick can find certain optional delegate libraries on your system. To configure, type:</p> 105 106<pre class="highlight"><span class="crtprompt">$ </span><span class='crtin'>cd ImageMagick-7.0.8</span><span class='crtout'><br/></span><span class="crtprompt">$ </span><span class='crtin'>./configure</span><span class='crtout'><br/></span><span class="crtprompt">$ </span><span class='crtin'>make</span></pre> 107<p>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</p> 108 109<pre class="highlight"><code>sudo make install 110</code></pre> 111 112<p>You may need to configure the dynamic linker run-time bindings:</p> 113 114<pre class="highlight"><code>sudo ldconfig /usr/local/lib 115</code></pre> 116 117<p>Finally, verify the ImageMagick install worked properly, type</p> 118 119<pre class="highlight"><code>/usr/local/bin/convert logo: logo.gif 120</code></pre> 121 122<p>For a more comprehensive test, run the ImageMagick validation suite. Ghostscript and Freetype are prerequisites, otherwise expect the EPS, PS, PDF and text annotations tests to fail.</p> 123 124<pre class="highlight"><code>make check 125</code></pre> 126 127<p>Congratulations, you have a working ImageMagick distribution and you are ready to use ImageMagick to <a href="../Usage/">convert, compose, or edit</a> your images or perhaps you'll want to use one of the <a href="../www/develop.html">Application Program Interfaces</a> for C, C++, Perl, and others.</p> 128 129<p>The above instructions will satisfy a great number of ImageMagick users, but we suspect a few will have additional questions or problems to consider. For example, what does one do if ImageMagick fails to configure or compile? Or what if you don't have administrator privileges and what if you don't want to install ImageMagick in the default <code>/../usr/local</code> folder? You will find the answer to these questions, and more, in <a href="advanced-unix-installation.html">Advanced Unix Source Installation</a>.</p> 130 131<h2><a class="anchor" id="windows"></a>Install from Windows Source</h2> 132 133<p>Building ImageMagick source for Windows requires a modern version of Microsoft Visual Studio IDE. Users have reported success with the Borland C++ compiler as well. If you don't have a compiler you can still install a self-installing <a href="../www/download.html">binary release</a>.</p> 134 135<p>Clone the Github repo:<p> 136 137<pre class="highlight"><code>git clone git@github.com:ImageMagick/ImageMagick-Windows.git ImageMagick-Windows-7</code></pre> 138 139<p>and run <code>CloneRepositories.cmd</code>. Alternatively, download <a href="https://imagemagick.org/download/windows/ImageMagick-windows.zip">ImageMagick-windows.zip</a> and verify its <a href="https://imagemagick.org/download/windows/digest.rdf">message digest</a>. For the latter, you can unpack the distribution with <a href="http://www.winzip.com">WinZip</a> or type the following from any MS-DOS Command Prompt window:</p> 140 141<pre class="highlight"><code>unzip ImageMagick-windows.zip</code></pre> 142 143<p>Next, launch your Visual Studio IDE and choose <kbd>Open->Project</kbd>. Select the configure workspace from the <kbd>ImageMagick-7.0.8/VisualMagick/configure</kbd> folder and press Open. Choose <kbd>Build->Build Solution</kbd> 144to compile the program and on completion run the program.</p> 145 146<p><img class="img-fluid mx-auto d-block" src="../images/configure.jpg" alt="[configure]" /></p> 147 148<p>Press <kbd>Next</kbd> and click on the multi-threaded static build. If you are using the Visual Studio 6.0 IDE, make sure no check is next to the <var>Generate Visual Studio 7</var> format option. Now press, on <kbd>Next</kbd> twice and finally <kbd>Finish</kbd>. The configuration utility just created a workspace required to build ImageMagick from source. Choose <kbd>Open->Project</kbd> and select the VisualStaticMT workspace from the <kbd>ImageMagick-7.0.8/VisualMagick/</kbd> folder. Finally, choose <kbd>Build->Build Solution</kbd> to compile and build the ImageMagick distribution.</p> 149 150<p>To verify ImageMagick is working properly, launch a MS-DOS Command Prompt window and type</p> 151 152<pre class="highlight"><span class="crtprompt">$ </span><span class='crtin'>cd ImageMagick-7.0.8</span><span class='crtout'><br/></span><span class="crtprompt">$ </span><span class='crtin'>convert logo: image.jpg</span></pre> 153<p>For a more comprehensive test, run the ImageMagick validation suite:</p> 154 155<pre class="highlight"><code>validate 156</code></pre> 157 158<p>Congratulations, you have a working ImageMagick distribution under Windows and you are ready to use ImageMagick to <a href="../Usage/">convert, compose, or edit</a> your images or perhaps you'll want to use one of the <a href="../www/develop.html">Application Program Interfaces</a> for C, C++, Perl, and others.</p> 159 160<p>The above instructions will satisfy a great number of ImageMagick users, but we suspect a few will have additional questions or problems to consider. For example, what does one do if ImageMagick fails to configure or compile? Or what if you want to install ImageMagick in a place other than the <kbd>ImageMagick-7.0.8/VisualMagick/bin</kbd> folder?
