ImageMagick

ImageMagick is a free, open-source suite for creating, editing, composing, converting, and manipulating digital images. It reads more than 100 major image formats, including JPEG, PNG, GIF, TIFF, and Ultra HDR. Its tools cover animation, color management, rendering, resizing, rotation, cropping, compositing, and effects. Command-line tools support scripts and automated image-processing pipelines, while APIs let developers incorporate its image-processing capabilities into applications. The project identifies Magick.NET as a .NET wrapper. ImageMagick supports Windows, macOS, Linux, API, and self-hosted use. Linux users should note that the provided AppImage is the sole pre-built binary; other distribution builds or custom compile options require building from source. The software is open by default, so its maker advises configuring a local security policy before use. Policy options range from open to websafe and can limit memory, disk space, image sequence length, and processing time. Commercial use is permitted; redistribution requires attribution and a copy of the license.
