I would consider GraphicsMagick instead http://www.graphicsmagick.org/index.html
There has been a fork in 2002, due to license problems,

	 ... ImageMagick from ImageMagick Studio LLC abandoned the MIT X11 style
	 license it had been using since 1992, and switched between several different
	 licenses until it ended up with one based on the Apache license, which is
	 intended to penalize projects which borrow some of its source code, or fork
	 from it. Since that time, GraphicsMagick has not incorporated any
	 ImageMagick source code

	... On November 27, 2003 ImageMagick Studio LLC applied to register
	"ImageMagick" as its trademark, and it was awarded this registered trademark
	(serial number 78333969) on August 30, 2005. Those who re-distribute
	modified versions of "ImageMagick" (e.g. patched or improved) under license
	as "ImageMagick" now face the risk of arbitrary trademark infringement
	claims by ImageMagick Studio LLC ...

Cheers,
David
