I guess it is the right place for your questions. There could be two reasons why you got no answers. - Well first, in the ImageMagick community, it seems there are very few (maybe none) users using the php-wand interface. In the ImageMagick community, the interfaces the most used are the command line interface and the Perl binding PerlMagick. - Second, in the PHP community, it seems there are very few (maybe none) users using the php-wand interface. In the PHP community, the ImageMagick interface the most used is the php_imagick interface. It is used a lot really, in a wide range of web-applications like CMSs, Wikis, forums, blogs, galleries, etc, where it is mainly used to provide quality thumbnails (since IM is very good for this task). php_imagick is available on a lot of web hosting (since php_imagick is a also a package available in PEAR while php-wand is not). I have never seen any web-application using php-wand (maybe there are some, I don't know). - Now indeed there are problems with php_imagick, it only provides a small range of the ImageMagick set of functions. I have tryed to contact the authors providing them patch, but I never got any answers, maybe the emails have been lost on the internet. Maybe one day I would make a derivative package from php_imagick called php_jmagick :) At least if there are fonctions from ImageMagick, that you need and that are missing in php_imagick, I can provide you a patch. - At last, I've just read your previous post on this list. It was a question about a build/compile issue for php-wand. For this kind of problem, I guess as a last resort that you could contact the author of php-wand. -- Florent _______________________________________________ Magick-users mailing list [email protected] http://studio.imagemagick.org/mailman/listinfo/magick-users
