I'm exporting an org file with images to html, and using the #+ATTR_HTML attribute to resize the image. That's having no effect, because the Emacs I'm using doesn't have ImageMagick enabled.

Yes, I can rebuild from source and enable it, but presumably the emacs devs disabled it by default for a reason. Furthermore, I'm finding that multiple sources that I might get a prepackaged Emacs from have this feature disabled. Rebuilding from source feels like I'm punching open a hole someone intentionally closed.

Is there a workaround for what I'm trying to do? The best I can come with (other than rebuilding Emacs from source) is to use an external program to resize my image to the size I want it to be. That's fairly cumbersome, and it will clutter my directory with various image sizes as I experiment and figure out what i want. Any suggestions?
