Introduction

About ImageMagick

ImageMagick is a robust collection of tools and libraries to read, write, and manipulate an image in many image formats (over 68 major formats) including popular formats like TIFF, JPEG, PNG, PDF, PhotoCD, and GIF. With ImageMagick you can create images dynamically, making it suitable for Web applications. You can also resize, rotate, sharpen, color reduce, or add special effects to an image and save your completed work in the same or differing image format.

Note: The above text is from the ImageMagick Website (http://www.imagemagick.org/), therefore not everything does apply to this extension at the moment, but it will some time in the future. Hopefully. And the link above is also a great source, if you don't understand everything here.
