Hi all, I''ve been trying to install GraphicsMagick with RMagic. I''ve tried ImageMagick with RMagic as well. I''ve tried the installations using Darwin Ports, Gems and from source. Nothing seems to work properly. My specs: ruby --version ruby 1.8.4 (2005-12-24) [powerpc-darwin8.5.0] rails --version Rails 1.1.0 convert -version Version: ImageMagick 6.1.8 04/05/06 Q16

I needed to install rmagick/GraphicsMagick on an IntelMac and did so from Darwinports. Some things work and others don''t work, like rendering fonts which needs X11 fonts and X server. The rmagick page at rubyforge points to .. http://developer.apple.com/opensource/tools/runningx11.html where X11 link to Apple is broken. X11User.pkg talked about on the page above no longer exists at

This is off-topic because it''s installation specific, but I wondered if anyone could point me in the right direction.

I read Tom Mornini''s discussion about installing GraphicsMagic and then RMagick, so I used port uninstall

Hello all fellow Mac OS X Railers. I''m just setting up a new MacBook from scratch. Everything has gone very easily, so I decide to attempt to install RMagick from scratch once again, something that I''ve wrestled with in the past, finally punting and going with a DarwinPorts ImageMagick install then direct gem install of RMagick. Well, I had no problems and have achieved

Tracked down the source of my problem... It seems that Rmagick isn''t properly cropping/resizing GIF or PNG images when uploaded via file_column. I can upload JPG files just fine. Originally I had installed ImageMagick via Debian''s apt-get and built the rmagick gem using "gem install rmagick". This wasn''t working so I uninstalled ImageMagick and tried to

I am using RMagick to convert some files served up by a rails app from tiff''s to pdf''s on the fly. I have Imagemagick installed but was having trouble with some of the conversions. I tried installing GraphicsMagick and running the conversions manually and they work fine using GraphicsMagick. (They do not work properly even manually with ImageMagick.) I can''t see

Is there a pre-built disk image for rmagic on OSX (including image magic and all the other pre-requisites)? I''ve seen that it comes on the Locomotive image but I don''t want to replace my entire development environment. Does anybody have a sense of how reliable it is on OSX? I''ve seen some fairly negative comments when googling, but that''s not the best way to

Hi, everyone! I have been recently hit by ImageMagick/Rmagick memory leak issues. I know I can lesson the problem by manually starting up GC each time I use Rmagick library but ImageMagick seems to use way too much memory nevertheless. (on shared hosting setup anyway) Is there a decent replacement for ImageMagick library? I used to think ImageMagick was quite efficient because its

I read the 13th recipe in the book "Rails Recipes" from Chad Fowler. I install with gem the gruff-library (gem install gruff). After the installation, I download the "rmagick-win32-1.13.0_IM-6.2.9-3.zip" file and install it on my win32-machine. It was successfully! So, I create a controller with script/generate. In a method, which I wrote after the creation, I''ll make

Hello list, I''m having a problem getting Gruff working with Rails on a Windows XP box. I installed RMagick, then Gruff via the win32 gem, and it seemed to go OK. From irb, I can do the following - require ''rubygems'' ##### This returns ''false'', but seems to work OK - require ''gruff'' ####### Ditto - g = Gruff::Bar.new etc., and I get

I see that the SVN version of the excellent file_column plug-in can create thumbnails using the url_for_image_column helper. This uses Rmagick to create the thumbnail... Quick question... Let''s say the file is a TIFF image - can the helper create a JPG version of the thumbnail for display in the browser? Curious if the plug-in can handle that transform with some creative use of the
