As long as you've got the convert.exe program somewhere, you should
have ImageMagick as setup as LDAO needs it.

Told LDAO where I unzipped IM, get some kind of KPLogic error (will
post the exact error when I get to work).

I really wish I could duplicate this!  I've had plenty of reports of
it, but I just can't make it happen on my system.

Anyway, to directly set LDAO, locate the Convert= setting in ldraw.ini
(it should be in the [LDraw] section).  If it's not there, just add
it.  The setting value is the directory where convert.exe is located.
On my system, it's something like this:

[LDraw]
Convert=d:\Apps\ImageMagick-4.0.9\

Is the entire IM directory needed, or JUST the convert.exe? I'd like to delete all the rest if all I need is convert.exe, but I don't have the time to remove a file at a time until something breaks. Right now, it works, but that's an awful lot of (...) (26 years ago, 14-Oct-98, to lugnet.build)
