My webhost (using linux) provides only FTP access, not shell/telnet/SSH etc. The installation instructions at imagemagick's site is meant to be typed at command prompt which I don't have access to. Is there any other way?
TIA.

If you do not have shell access I think you also have no access to install additional applications like ImageMagick's convert and also no access rights to PHP's exec() function. Maybe you can try to use the binary version of ImageMagick for your special LINUX distribution. Try this here: http://www.imagemagick.org/www/QuickStart.html
Ask your provider to install ImageMagick on the server. There are very good RPM packages on http://www.ImageMagick.org.
You can use phpwcms without ImageMagick but then you can not use the automatic thumbnail creation. There are good image replamenet tags like {IMAGE:my_image.jpg} or {IMAGE_LEFT:my_image.jpg} or {IMAGE_RIGHT:my_image.jpg}
