You need PHP 5.2 or higher for this.

  1. Download and install ImageMagick-6.5.8-7 Q16-windows-dll.exe (or later) from http://www.imagemagick.org/download/binaries/
  2. Download the latest php_imagick_dyn-Q16.dll from http://valokuva.org/outside-blog-content/imagick-windows-builds/
  3. Copy the DLL file to your [PHP]/extension folder and rename it to php_imagick.dll
  4. Edit your php.ini file and add the new extension: extension=php_imagick.dll
  5. Save the php.ini file and restart Apache Server (and possibly Windows)
  6. phpinfo() should show imagick enabled.
