GraphicsMagick is a fork of ImageMagick, emphasizing stability of both programming API and command-line options. It was branched off ImageMagick's version 5.5.2 in 2002 after irreconcilable differences emerged in the developers' group.[3]
In addition to the programming language APIs available with ImageMagick, GraphicsMagick also includes a Tcl API, called TclMagick.[4]
GraphicsMagick is used by several websites to process large numbers of uploaded photographs.[5][6] As of 2023, GraphicsMagick had 4 active code contributors while ImageMagick had 24 active contributors.[7]
The most recent stable release of GraphicsMagick, version 1.3.43, was made available on March 23, 2024. This version includes various bug fixes and enhancements, demonstrating the project's commitment to maintaining high-quality software. GraphicsMagick continues to evolve while ensuring that new features do not compromise the stability of existing functionalities.[8]
