You can install ImageMagick from source, or grab a ready-to-run package below. Review recent changes or check our global mirrors.
Some binary versions are labeled by their architecture, color precision, and build type:
- x64 is for 64-bit Intel or AMD processors, arm64 for 64-bit ARM processors, and x86 for 32-bit systems.
- Q8 and Q16 store each color component with 8 or 16 bits, respectively. Q16 can retain more precision and uses more memory.
- HDRI enables floating-point pixels that can represent values beyond the usual range, useful for high dynamic-range imaging.
- Dynamic builds use shared libraries; static builds link ImageMagick libraries into the executable.
