PascalMagick

Installation

The current version of PascalMagick works on Windows and Linux. Beta testers are necessary for the Mac OS X version.

To start with, install ImageMagick binaries from the official website: http://www.imagemagick.org/script/binary-releases.php

Now make sure the PascalMagick package is installed (Instructions on the #Download section above).

To check that everything is working, open the packages\imagemagick\examples\wanddemo.lpr project under your FPC directory. Now go to the Project --> "Compiler Options dialog" and change the "Other Units" field to point to "../magick", so it can find the PascalMagick/magick/ImageMagick.pas file. After this you can compile and run the test program.

If the program is working, it will load the image.png image located on the same directory, resize it and then save it as a jpg called image.jpg.

One extra step is necessary on Linux: Rename the image.PNG to image.png due to case issues.
