Newbie "Convert" question on Fedora

[j12will12]

ImageMagick is installed on a Fedora 10 server. It seems to work fine with no issues. It was installed during the Fedora installation with rpms. I am attempting to configure a php application that relies on ImageMagick. The application is asking for the location of the ImageMagick convert executable. Can anyone tell my where I can find this? I can locate the ImageMagick directories but I don't see anything that looks like it is the "convert" executable.

check /usr/local/bin or /usr/bin

on my server, this works to tell me the IM version

<?php
system("/usr/local/bin/convert -version");
?>

Thanks. That's it: /usr/bin/convert

Warning the IM provided by default installations are often a little old. But if you are not doing anything requiring new features than you should have no problems.

Check in IM examples for version numbers when various features were added, and check '-list' output to see if the option or method was implemented.

If you do not a newer version, you can compile the latest RPM from fedora using technique in IM examples APIs building. I myself use fedora 10 (actually omega 10 live disk re-spin) and do this a few times a week, as I am constantally testing 'new features'. So I know it works.
