I have a customer who want to work with PHP and Imagemagick, but he don't exactly know how to do it.

I'm totally clueless, so, I want to ask, if anybody know good documentation about it.
Please don't tell me search in google, I already did it.

Thanks in advance.

Here is something i used to resize my images:

$execute_command = exec ("/usr/local/bin/convert -geometry "."220" ."x"."250!"." \"".$ssname."\" \"".$tfile."\"");


Basically, you just use exec to run image magick commands, to manipulate files, you upload them, specify ImageMagick with path to the uploaded file and its destination directory

Hope that helps :D

well, i'm the customer ;) and it don't works... I'm always getting a parse error?!?

look at my script:
<?php

$ssname = "1_cover.jpg";
$tfile = "new.jpg";


$execute_command*=*exec*("/usr/local/bin/convert -geometry "."220"*."x"."250!"." \"".$ssname."\" \"".$tfile."\"");


?>

I don't really see any errors...

hmm, thats weird :erm:

What line does it give parse error on? this is the same exact code I used, I just Copied it and pasted it

Hey I am pretty familiar with gd but how do you do that with a query with mysql I was asked that a while back and didn't have an answer

Hi!
Why not check the path for
/usr/local/bin/convert

Have a great day :)

amar

amar,
invalid path shouldnt give a parse error in PHP, parse error means invalid PHP Code, but that code seems fine

What do you mean by that? Can you please explain in more detail :)

Nah, path is correct.

Parse error on the line on wich the exec()-command is...

Well,
I guess if you don't copy/paste the exact error message here, nobody's gonna be able to help you.

Baaaaah:
Parse error: parse error in /home/gregdow/public_html/imagemagick.php on line 7

don't says much more then I said, line 7 is the line on wich the exec()-command is.
