Questions and postings pertaining to the usage of ImageMagick regardless of the interface. This includes the command-line utilities, as well as the C and C++ APIs. Usage questions are like "How do I use ImageMagick to create drop shadows?".

That's great news. Thanks!
Would you be kind enough to tell me when its available and where I can find it? Is there any way to apply the patch to the 6.3 version I'm currently using? The motivation behind that question is I'm using Jmagick and I don't think it works with newer versions of ImageMagick.
convert "C:\temp\junk\Picture1.BMP" "C:\temp\junk\Picture1.jpg"
convert: length and filesize do not match `C:\temp\junk\Picture1.BMP' @ error/bmp.c/ReadBMPImage/786.
ImageMagick relies on the libWMF delegate library which returns different results under Windows than on Linux and returns different results for the EPS and GD devices. Furthermore, libWMF has not been patched since 2005. The libWMF GD device gives the closest results to your image, however, ImageMagick does not include GD support under Windows. Can you process your images under Linux or does it need to be under Windows? Otherwise you could try contacting the libWMF team and ask if they have any plans for a new release of libWMF.

Windows is definitely the target platform due to other dependencies of our application.
Is there anything else you guys can do to solve this problem?
Why did I start getting the command line exceptions like this with the 6.6.1-1 patch...
