Verify ImageMagick installation

Question

My web hosting said ImageMagic has been pre-installed on the server. I did a quick search for "ImageMagick" in the output of phpinfo() and I found nothing. I can't SSH in the server so is there a way in PHP I can verify the installation?

Try this:

<?php
//This function prints a text array as an html list.
function alist ($array) {  
  $alist = "<ul>";
  for ($i = 0; $i < sizeof($array); $i++) {
    $alist .= "<li>$array[$i]";
  }
  $alist .= "</ul>";
  return $alist;
}
//Try to get ImageMagick "convert" program version number.
exec("convert -version", $out, $rcode);
//Print the return code: 0 if OK, nonzero if error. 
echo "Version return code is $rcode <br>"; 
//Print the output of "convert -version"    
echo alist($out); 
?>
