Installing JMagick 6.3.9 on Windows XP

Here are the steps:

1. Go to http://downloads.jmagick.org/6.3.9/.
2. Download ImageMagick-6.3.9-0-Q16-windows-dll.exe and install. The PATH environment variable should be updated with the install directory.
3. Download jmagick-win-6.3.9-Q16.zip and unzip. The directory contains jmagick.jar and jmagick.dll. You may move both files subject to #4 and #5.
4. Make sure jmagick.jar is in the Java classpath.
5. Make sure your VM arguments (e.g. in Eclipse or from the command line) contain a pointer to the directory containing jmagick.dll. E.g. -Djava.library.path=C:/dcs/tools/jmagick-win-6.3.9-Q16.
