Codeigniter with ImageMagick

I understand that ImageMagick can be used with codeigniter. But where should I put the dll for imageMagick in the codeigniter folder? I am currently using codeiginiter on mac. I searched and got some answers in which imageMagick is installed in the bin folder. If I put the website live can I still use the ImageMagick?

My intention is to use ImageMagick to fetch some images and do overlaying to generate one image and save it. However when I try loading with the below code I got an error

    $config['image_library'] = 'ImageMagick';
    echo site_url();
    $config['source_image'] = site_url().'marcella-resources/front/img/M24CPP_x200/SBase1.jpg';
    $config['new_image'] = site_url().'marcella-resources/front/test/SBase1_copy.jpg';
    $config['maintain_ratio'] = TRUE;
    $config['width']     = 75;
    $config['height']   = 50;

    $this->load->library('image_lib', $config);


    if ( !$this->image_lib->resize())
    {
        echo $this->image_lib->display_errors();
        $this->image_lib->clear();
    }

The error is

The path to the image is not correct.

The path to your image library is not correct. Please set the correct path in your image preferences.

When you upload your source image put Server root path and then full path to your folder. You can not use site url.

Put upload path as : 

$upload_path = $_SERVER["DOCUMENT_ROOT"]."marcella-resources/front/img/M24CPP_x200/";

Then try this lines : 

$config['source_image'] = $_SERVER["DOCUMENT_ROOT"].'marcella-resources/front/img/M24CPP_x200/SBase1.jpg';
$config['new_image'] = $_SERVER["DOCUMENT_ROOT"].'marcella-resources/front/test/SBase1_copy.jpg';

that will work absolutely. :)

Replace these lines:

$config['source_image'] = site_url().'marcella-resources/front/img/M24CPP_x200/SBase1.jpg';
$config['new_image'] = site_url().'marcella-resources/front/test/SBase1_copy.jpg';

with these lines:

$config['source_image'] = 'marcella-resources/front/img/M24CPP_x200/SBase1.jpg';
$config['new_image'] = 'marcella-resources/front/test/SBase1_copy.jpg';
