Topic: image magic or alternative for sme6.0.1.1

[SSBN]

I have been asked to host a web site for a non profit organization and I have run into a problem. For one part of there web site they upload pictures and had user image magic to render it. I do not have image magic on my 6.0.1.1 server. I have not found any posts with anything other than a passing reference to installing it. Nothing that would give me the confidence to install it on a production server. Have any of you installed it or is there a good alternative that is a bit more sme friendly.

I've installed imagemagick on my server. It runs great for a couple of months now. I'm using it with coppermine (a gallery script).  

Step 1:

Download all rpm's needed from here:
http://www.acenet-tech.org/cdj/imagemagick/

Step 2

Intall rpm's in this order:

1. XFree86-libs-4.2.0-8.i386.rpm
2. netpbm-9.24-3.i386.rpm
3. libungif-4.1.0-10.i386.rpm
4. libtiff-3.5.7-2.i386.rpm
5. netpbm-progs-9.24-3.i386.rpm
6. ImageMagick-5.4.9-1.i386.rpm
7. ImageMagick-devel-5.4.9-1.i386.rpm
8. ImageMagick-Magick++-5.4.9-1.i386.rpm
9. ImageMagick-perl-5.4.9-1.i386.rpm

Path to ImageMagick 'convert' utility is /usr/bin

If you also want to use text options, you have to install some fonts. I didn't check this part of this small howto, but I guess it's no problem to try.

Stap 1 Find gnu-gs-fonts-std-6.0.tar.gz somewhere (I can't find it at the moment)
Step 2 gunzip /usr/src/redhat/SOURCES/gnu-gs-fonts-std-6.0.tar.gz
Step 3: tar -xf /usr/src/redhat/SOURCES/gnu-gs-fonts-std-6.0.tar
Step 4: maak de directory '/usr/share/fonts/default/Type1' aan
Step 5: mv fonts/* /usr/share/fonts/default/Type1/

I didn’t expect such a quick and precise answer. Thanks Henk for your help.

Perfect, just what I was looking for to install with gallery2.

Thanks Henk
