When the users run the pipeline with Docker, it does not matter which OS they are using. However, Windows users that decide not to run the script with Docker might face issues when calling convert. See: http://www.imagemagick.org/Usage/windows/#convert_issue

I think one clean option to implement imagemagick calls is by using the the Wand library. It just requires to have imagemagick installed and you can call the tools directly from python
