Linux Binary Release • macOS Binary Release • Windows Binary Release

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.

It is strongly recommended to establish a security policy suitable for your local environment before utilizing ImageMagick.

## Linux Binary Release

We provide AppImage as the only pre-built Linux binary. If you require a different binary for your distribution or need custom compile options, you will need to build 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

ImageMagick-7.1.2-28-gcc-x86_64.AppImage ImageMagick-7.1.2-28-clang-x86_64.AppImage | Complete portable application on Linux, no installation required. Just download and run. This AppImage has an open security policy. ImageMagick recommended practices strongly encourage you to configure a security policy that suits your local environment. Simply add a custom security policy in your local path, .e.g., `~/.config/ImageMagick/policy.xml` and verify with this command: `./magick -list policy`.

## macOS Binary Release

We recommend Homebrew which provides pre-built binaries for Mac (some users prefer MacPorts). Download HomeBrew and type:

    brew install imagemagick

ImageMagick depends on Ghostscript fonts. To install them, type:

    brew install ghostscript

If you require a build with a wider set of delegates and codecs (e.g. SVG via librsvg, raw image support via libraw, OpenMP support, JPEG XL, Cairo, and more), Homebrew also provides `imagemagick-full` as an official formula:

    brew install imagemagick-full

Note that `imagemagick-full` is keg-only, meaning its binaries are not automatically linked into your `PATH`.

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 will need to build from source.

## Windows Binary Release

ImageMagick runs on Windows 10 (x86 , x64 & arm64) or newer or Windows Server 2012 or newer.

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:

Alternatively, you can install ImageMagick with winget. ImageMagick uses Advanced Installer to publish the latest release to the winget repository.

    winget install ImageMagick.Q16-HDRI

    winget install ImageMagick.Q16

    winget install ImageMagick.Q8

Or through one of the unofficial releases from winget, scoop, or chocolatey.

    winget install ImageMagick.ImageMagick

    scoop install main/imagemagick

    choco install imagemagick

To verify ImageMagick is working properly, type the following in a Command Prompt window:

    magick logo: logo.gif
    magick identify logo.gif

If you have any problems, you likely need `vcomp140.dll`. To install it, download Visual C++ Redistributable Package.

Note, use a double quote (`"`) rather than a single quote (`'`) for the ImageMagick command line under Windows:

    $ magick "e:/myimages/image.png" "e:/myimages/image.jpg"

Use two double quotes for VBScript scripts:

    Set objShell = wscript.createobject("wscript.shell")
    objShell.Exec("magick ""e:/myimages/image.png"" ""e:/myimages/image.jpg""")

It is strongly recommended to establish a security policy suitable for your local environment before utilizing ImageMagick.

Congratulations, you have a working ImageMagick distribution under Windows 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.
