[SOLVED] CI 3.1.0 ImageMagick not working

I'm not using the codeigniter image manipulation library myself so I dont know if it can help you with the conversion. But it's so easy in regular php:

PHP Code:

function png2jpg($originalFile, $outputFile, $quality) {
    $image = imagecreatefrompng($originalFile);
    imagejpeg($image, $outputFile, $quality);
    imagedestroy($image);
} 


I would not want to be dependent of the availability of the exec command in my application since it is usualy turned off on a shared hosting server.
