I have PDF documents created using FPDF and I wish to convert to jpg for displaying purposes. I believe I have installed Imagick correctly and set the php.ini file to see it but when I try to suck it into my code I get the Class "Imagick" not found error message. Does this mean I haven't installed it correctly or is my code below not right?

    if (\file_exists($cert)) {
        
        $im = new \Imagick($cert.'[0]');
        $im->setImageFormat('jpg');
        header('Content-Type: image/jpg');
        echo $im;

    }

As always any guidance appreciated. I'm using php8.2 and I'm using WAMP on a windows machine.

    The format looks to be okay. Have you run a phpinfo() against your environment to check if Imagick is installed and listed?

  • Yes I've checked that php has the extension set but when I run the above code I get the class not found message. After reading all the instructions and hints/tips, I think I must have something wrong with my local path settings within WAMP so nothing to do with Joomla. Sorry to be a nuisance. I'll try my code on an active site to test. Cheers.

  • Are you trying to run the above code from a Terminal,(CMD) as a CLI or part of Joomla instance? Using a Terminal or CMD command will use your Windows Path statements to find PHP which can be a different implementation of PHP to the one you have in your WAMP that is accessed via a CLI or Web url.

  • Ok, but no I'm using it in my Joomla! component. My component creates a PDF certificate and I wanted to be able to display it as a thumbnail image.
