Remember that after installing Imagick  or indeed any PHP module  you need to restart your web server and or php-fpm if you re using it  for the module to appear in phpinfo

To test only the IMagick PHP extension  not the full ImageMagick suite   save the following as a PHP file  testImagick php  and then run it from console  php testImagick php   lt  php  image   new Imagick     image- gt newImage 1  1  new ImagickPixel   ffffff      image- gt setImageFormat  png     pngData    image- gt getImagesBlob    echo strpos  pngData    x89PNG r n x1a n       0    Ok     Failed   echo   n     credit  https   mlocati github io articles php-windows-imagick html
