Yeah... imagemagick is by far the best option. Kind of the industry standard, so to speak. Chances are, it's already on your machine -- it ships standard with most linux distros these days.
PHP has a bunch of nice libraries for both this and GD, but you'll probably have to do cfexecutes to manipulate imagemagick from the commandline in CF.
