ImageMagick through command line

Basically I wanna use the tools available through ImageMagick, however, when running command prompts in Matlab it does not recognize the ImageMagick tools.

For instance: convert image.png -dither FloydSteinberg -remap ColorMap.png remap remap_image.png would normally work, except when run through matlab it says the command "convert" is not found. I believe this is because it is not part of the system's path. I just want a workaround.

Thanks

You could just pass the absolute path to your executable into the system command

Edit: you could also try this (which is for Linux, but should also work on Windows with the system command)

You did not post the code you use, but

!convert image.png -dither FloydSteinberg -remap ColorMap.png remap remap_image.png

or

system(['convert image.png -dither FloydSteinberg -remap ', ...
        'ColorMap.png remap remap_image.png')

is expected to work. If this is failing, use the full path to the executable.
