Paid on delivery
I need a Mac version of ImageMagick (most recent version) compiled as a standalone to run on Macs; that is, a version that can be distributed with other applications and run freely without users having to install any additional software. (I need a standalone, no-dependencies solution.) There are options for Windows users, but obtaining the some functionality for a Mac version will require a custom compile/build.

Hi there, I'm Matt S and would like to help you with ImageMagick OS X build (I'm an IT developer and webmaster for 24 years, using MacBook Pro for 8 years now). I have created a static build with this configuration: ./magick -version Version: ImageMagick 7.0.8-9 Q16 x86_64 2018-08-11 [login to view URL] Copyright: © 1999-2018 ImageMagick Studio LLC License: [login to view URL] Features: Cipher DPC HDRI Delegates (built-in): bzlib fontconfig freetype jng jp2 jpeg lcms lzma pangocairo png tiff webp x xml zlib on OS X 10.11 (El Captain) and it should work on this and all new OS X versions (and possibly few older). The standalone application above has 5.8 MB file size, uses 16-bit and supports high resolution images etc. I hope you're aware that distributing just the "magick" application alone won't create shortcuts (symbolic links) that ImageMagick install does like "convert" etc. So for calling convert on such system you have to prefix it with magick so "magick convert" (and parameters and options). So - let's try. I can send you a standalone magick application for you to test. If it works on your target system, then it's fine and I might possibly add say ghostscript too (if needed for PDF handling). If it doesn't work I won't object to return back the funds here on Freelancer and will swallow 10 bucks (10% a Freelancer takes no matter if project is successful or not). Looking forward to your reply, Matt

Hi, I had some free time and managed to put together a working build already. It has been tested on High Sierra (10.13.6) but should work on older versions of macOS too. Theoretically, it should work from macOS 10.10 upwards because the build is done with Xcode6.4. My static build includes all the "delegates" that the official build offers, these are: bzlib, freetype, jng, jpeg, lcms, png, raw, tiff, webp, xml and zlib. If needed, some libraries can be excluded in order to reduce the size of magick, which, at this moment, is of 10MB. The build is currently done on Travis-CI thus saving the need to have an always clean environment. I hope to hear from you soon, even for clarifications that you might need or corrections on assumptions that I might have gotten wrong. Best regards, Andrei Oanca
