Step#1

ImageMagick must be installed in the system and Paperclip must have access to it. ImageMagick is a software suite to create, edit, compose, or convert bitmap images. It can read and write images in a variety of formats.

Step#2

Include the paperclip gem in your Gemfile

gem "paperclip"

Then run the bundler to install the gem

bundle install

as You are new to Rails:

It will be good if you go through this Tutorial and usage documentation under the repo of paperclip.
