             Summary: Require imageMagick path be specified on Windows OS
                 Key: TIKA-2635
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TIKA-2635
             Project: Tika
          Issue Type: Task
            Reporter: Tim Allison


Our optional image preprocessing with imagemagick can run into problems on Windows machines where the executable `convert` is a system command, not the imagemagick executable.

I propose that on Windows, we require users to specify a path for imagemagick.

If there are other system 'convert' commands on other operating systems, should we require that imagemagick be in the path?
