Support for ImageMagick and PerlMagick
ImageMagick is compatible with our Web hostings and our managed Cloud Servers. To use ImageMagick, you need to enable the exec() function of the site concerned, because the component is disabled by default for security reasons.
Our hostings also support the Perl module, Image::Magick (its path is /usr/local/bin/convert), which you can use for example to convert a PDF file to a JPG image. You can use it without specifying the full path:
$ perl -e 'use Image::Magick';
Alternatives to ImageMagick
- The GD 2.x library offers the same features as ImageMagick
- Gallery 2 is also compatible with our hostings
