**Using ImageMagick**\
Learn how to use ImageMagick, a complete set of command-line tools for manipulating image files in Linux.

This article explains how to use ImageMagick. It provides a full suite of command-line programs for working with image files.

**Using ImageMagick**\
ImageMagick is installed on all ruachost.com shared servers and includes the following programs:

- convert
- identify
- mogrify
- composite
- montage
- compare
- stream
- conjure

The full path to the ImageMagick binaries is either `/usr/bin` or `/usr/local/bin`, depending on your server. Some servers may have ImageMagick installed in both locations. To check which version is the most recent, run:

```
/usr/bin/convert -version
/usr/local/bin/convert -version
```

> **Note:**
There is also an ImageMagick PHP extension that allows image manipulation within PHP. For instructions on enabling PHP extensions in cPanel, see the relevant guide.
