Steps to Install ImageMagick on UwAmp for Windows: as of March 31, 2016 Detailed guide for newbies like me.
... continued
4. Goto:
http://pecl.php.net/package/imagick
as of today, latest is 3.4.1 so I went to: http://pecl.php.net/package/imagick/3.4.1/windows
My PHP version is: 5.6.18, and Thread Safety is Yes from Step #1, so I downloaded: 5.6 Thread Safe (TS) x86 I got: php_imagick-3.4.1-5.6-ts-vc11-x86.zip
5. Unzip and copy "php_imagick.dll" to the php extension folder:
In my case: php_imagick.dll --> C:\UwAmp\bin\php\php-5.6.18\ext
Note: this ZIP also contains dlls which other guides says to extract to the extension folder of apache. NO NEED TO DO IT. Step #3 has taken care of it.
6. Edit "php.ini" and add at the very end (could be anywhere I suppose):
[Imagick] extension=php_imagick.dll
For super newbies: click the edit button in the UwAmp UI, "php_uwamp.ini" will open and edit it. It will be copied to the correct php.ini when UwAmp is restarted. I had trouble at first since there are several php*.ini scattered all over.
7. Restart Apache
8. Check PHPInfo scroll to section (or find): imagick number of supported formats: 234
If there is no "imagick" section or "supported format" is 0, something went wrong.
Hope this helps.

Steps to Install ImageMagick on UwAmp for Windows: as of March 31, 2016 Detailed guide for newbies like me. Took a long time to get it to work.
I initially followed: http://php .net/manual/en/imagick.installation.php but after installation, PHPInfo under imagick shows number of supported formats = 0
So I followed these steps, clobbered from various sources to get it to work.
1. Open PHPInfo and check: Architecture = x86 or x64 Thread Safety = yes or no
2. Download ImageMagick from:
http://windows.php.net/downloads/pecl/deps/
In my case I downloaded: ImageMagick-6.9.3-7-vc11-x86.zip because the Architecture under PHPInfo is x86 as for vc11 or vc14 search google for "visual c++ 11 runtime" or "visual c++ 14 runtime" and install it
3. Unzip and copy all dlls from the bin subfolder to the Apache bin directory. It's a bunch of CORE_RL_*.dll and IM_MOD_RL_*.dll plus a few other dlls.
In my case, I installed UwAmp in C:\UwAmp, so: (from zip) bin/*.dll --> C:\UwAmp\bin\apache\bin

After 2 hours of looking for help from different documentation & sites, I found out none of them are complete solution. So, I summary my instruction here:
1) yum install php-devel 2) cd /usr 3) wget http://pear.php.net/go-pear 4) php go-pear 5) See the following line in /etc/php.ini [include_path=".:/usr/PEAR"] 6) pecl install imagick 7) Add the following line in /etc/php.ini [extension=imagick.so] 8) service httpd restart
Hopefully, I can save other engineer effort & time.... Good luck!

Simple way to install ImageMagick on your linux machine(RHEL5,Cent OS 5)
#yum install ImageMagick* #pecl install imagick sometimes you may have ask to install gcc compiler. if so execute #yum install gcc* added the extension on php.ini #echo "extension=imagick.so" >> /etc/php.ini #service httpd restart

For installing imagick in Windows do the following:
1. Download and install the ImageMagick API from http://www.imagemagick.org/script/binary-releases.php#windows. (In my case, I installed the lastest version: ImageMagick-6.9.2-10-Q16-x64-dll.)
2. Go to http://pecl.php.net/package/imagick and choose the version of imagick that best suits your PHP version. (Because I had PHP 5.4 I downloaded "php_imagick-3.3.0-5.4-ts-vc9-x86.zip".
3. Extract the contents of the zip file and go to the directory where the files were extracted.
4. Copy the php_imagick.dll in yout PHP's ext folder.
5. All the other dll that you extracted from the zip file can go into apache's bin directory. In my case, I have apache 2.2 and the bin directory is at: C:\Program Files (x86)\Apache Software Foundation\Apache2.2\bin.
6. Activate the extention in your PHP.ini file by adding the following: [Imagick] extension: "C:\Program Files (x86)\PHP\ext\php_imagick.dll"
7. Restart apache 8. Sit back and relax

If you want to install ImageMagick on Nginx for Windows, in addition to setting php_imagick.dll extension, you should set an environment variable like so:
- First download ImageMagick package (if you haven't already) * https://windows.php.net/downloads/pecl/deps/
- Extract it to any folder for example "C:\ImageMagick-xxx\"
- Edit the "PATH" variable and add a new entry with value "C:\ImageMagick-xxx\bin"
* Note: The ImageMagick package you download should match your php Compiler (i.e Visual C++ 2017), Architecture (i.e x86 or x64) and "Thread Safety". All of these can be viewed from php_info()

I too had the error "Please provide a path to MagickWand-config or Wand-config program." when installing on linux (in this case CentOS aka Red Hat).
The simple solution was to ensure "ImageMagick-devel" and NOT "ImageMagick" package was in place. Next comes the standard command: pecl install imagick
Lastly, and as per the otherwise flawless instructions, edit php.ini to include: extension=imagick.so

Just a note that the 'Ian Co' instructions for 'Installing ImageMagick on UwAmp for Windows' also works for XAMPP. Just change the paths accordingly.

So, your installation in general works so that you can display the output from a PHP script-- even phpinfo(); works. Great start. If not, you likely have bigger problems or are compiling imagick into PHP. Best of luck.
But, back to where we are; PHP in general works, except the imagick extension isn't working or needs installed or something.
There is some very helpful information in the phpinfo(); output blocks. (If phpinfo(); means nothing to you, hit the google. We'll wait.)
Notably the php.ini that PHP is using can be found there, very important. --Many instructions will tell you to put "extension=imagick" into it.
Better would be to create an imagick.ini file (that has "extension=imagick" inside) in the directory scanned for additional .ini files.
This is nice when the machine you are working on has multiple php.ini files and unused configurations littered about. phpinfo(); will tell you where the resources being used can be located in the file system.
Helpful to me, thought I'd share...

Recently I had to install ImageMagick on FreeBSD. The following commands achieved this without a problem.
cd /usr/ports/graphics/ImageMagick-nox11/ make install clean service apache22 stop cd /usr/ports/graphics/pecl-imagick/ make install clean service apache22 start
NOTE: For some of the package dependencies you will be prompted to select optional add-ons. I left all the config options untouched except for those which provided integration with the X11 system. Those once I disabled.

imagick 2.2.2 might have a problem loading in PHP 5.3 by giving following error at start-up:
PHP Warning: PHP Startup: Unable to load dynamic library '.../imagick.so' - .../imagick.so: undefined symbol: XStringListToTextProperty in Unknown on line 0
in this case, revert to PHP 5.2.8 and imagick-2.2.0 will work just fine.

Windows installation is a bit more tricky since "pecl install imagick" does NOT work properly.
Here's how I installed it: 1/ Install ImageMagick software http://www.imagemagick.org/script/binary-releases.php#windows 2/ Download pecl-5.2-dev.zip (choose the version relevant to your PHP) from http://snaps.php.net/ 3/ Copy php_imagick.dll from the archive you've downloaded to your PHP extention folder. 4/ Add the following line to php.ini (in the exntentions section): extension=php_imagick.dll 5/ Restart your server 6/ Try the example script to see all went well
Good luck :)

Sins I tried around a lot and searched the net to find a working dll for ImageMagic and PHP5.4, with bad results I at last found one working. There is a guy (Mikko) that has a blog and he wrote about this and and have compiled a working solution. You find his blog about this here: http://valokuva.org/?m=201211.
Hope that this helps others as well.

For anyone attempting to install the binaries on windows xp, don't waste your time. You'll need to install this on windows 2003 Server (and up) or Windows Vista since there are dependences (msvcr80.dll) that will require it.

If you have used lampp first copy imagick.so from /usr/lib/php5/20060613+lfs/imagick.so path and paste it to php lib.(/opt/lampp/lib/php/extensions/no-debug-non-zts-20060613) Then edit your php.ini and add extension=imagick.so

Addendum to Ian Co's "Steps to Install ImageMagick for Windows" specifically for Uniform Server Z and how to fix if you get an empty list of ImageMagick supported formats):
Thanks to Ian Co's comments above for setting me in the right direction.
My Uniform Server is installed to B:\UniServerZ, adjust the following steps to your specific installation.
If you've been messing around with a gazillion solutions like me, first delete any previous copies of imagemagick dll-s (i.e. IM_MOD_RL...dll-s, CORE_RL...dll-s) from your sysem, i.e. I had copied them to C:\Windows\system, B:\UniServerZ\core\php56, B:\UniServerZ\core\php56\extensions.
1. Download ImageMagick-6.8.9-1-vc9-x86.zip from http://windows.php.net/downloads/pecl/deps/
Extract contents of bin folder to B:\UniServerZ\core\php56 (or whichever vresion of php you are using)
2. Download the appropriate imagick package from http://pecl.php.net/package/imagick/3.1.2/windows For me the right one was php_imagick-3.1.2-5.6-ts-vc11-x86.zip , check phpinfo whether you need the thread-safe version or not and which architecture.
Extract php_imagemagick.dll ONLY (and not the other dll-s) to B:\UniServerZ\core\php56\extensions
Previously I had tried ImageMagick-6.9.3-7-vc11-x86.zip and ImageMagick-6.9.3-7-vc14-x86.zip but the dll-s here did not work, perhaps because Uniform Server was compiled using VC9? and these were compiled with later versions!? What a mess.
I had also tried creating a C:\ImageMagick and adding it to PATH user-level and to MAGICK_HOME system-level environment variables, but this proved unnecessary (although it also works).
Also, installing the windows binary releases from http://www.imagemagick.org/script/binary-releases.php#windows was unnecessary (and might actually mess things up if windows tries those dll-s first).
How do I add imagick to PHP?
Navigate to Home - Software - Module Installers, then click on the Manage button next to PHP Pecl. In the next screen, select the required PHP version, then click Apply. You can now enter “imagick” in the Install a PHP Pecl field, and click the Install Now button.
How do I add imagick?
How to install Imagick/imagemagick PHP extension on windows 7. You have to edit your php.ini file and add new extension extension=php_imagick.dll.. Save ini file and restart apache server. (If necessary, restart your windows). phpinfo() should show imagick enabled..
What is imagick PHP extension?
Imagick is a PHP extension to create and modify images using the ImageMagick library. There is also a version of Imagick available for HHVM. Although the two extensions are mostly compatible in their API, and they both call the ImageMagick library, the two extensions are completely separate code-bases.
How do I install imagick library?
To install it, download Visual C++ Redistributable Package. Congratulations, you have a working ImageMagick distribution under Windows and you are ready to use ImageMagick to convert, compose, or edit your images or perhaps you'll want to use one of the Application Program Interfaces for C, C++, Perl, and others.
