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
