Installing ImageMagick on Mac

Installing ImageMagick on Mac is done very easily using MacPorts.
First Install MacPorts from source given at ' http://www.macports.org/install.php'
And then install ImageMagick

To install MacPort:
1. Download source from  ' http://www.macports.org/install.php'
2. tar xjvf MacPorts-2.0.1.tar.bz2
3. cd MacPorts-2.0.1
4  ./configure && make && sudo make install
5. sudo port -v selfupdate

You can check the port version by command "port verison"

To install ImageMagick
After successfully installing port, run the command:
-   sudo port install ImageMagick
to install ImageMagick

  1. Macports overcomplicates the process. Use Homebrew instead. http://mxcl.github.com/homebrew/
