R help - Mar 2008 - adimpro package : R does not seem to find my ImageMagick installation

Dear list,
(sorry if I post to the wrong place...),

Though having spent some time on it, I cannot find an answer by myself 
to the following behaviour of the read.image function (adimpro package) :
I'm running R.2.6.2 on Windows XP. The home directory is C:\Program 
files\R\R-2.6.2
Version 0.4.4 of adimpro is loaded.
ImageMagick 6.3.0 is installed, its directory is C:\Program 
files\ImageMagick-6.3.0-Q16

When using function read.image in adimpro, extensions"tif",
"tiff",
"png" .. and so on are not recognized, as seems to say the following 
error message :
> Error in read.image(file = "JFtiff.tiff") :
>   cannot find JFtiff.ppm
In my understanding, this means that adimpro behaves as if ImageMagick 
was not installed, as the manual says :
> If ImageMagick is not available only "pgm", "ppm" and
"pnm" formats
> can be processed
What am I misunderstanding or doing wrong ? (perhaps wrong location of 
ImageMagick or wrong version...?)

Thanks a lot in advance. Olivier

Is it (or its bin directory, if it has one) in your PATH?  Being installed 
is not enough ....
