PHP 8 - HEIC ImageMagick 7 support
As HEIC is the default format for photos on iOs devices, il would be great to be able to upload heic images on website and to work with using php.
It is not possible, and acceptable, to ask to final user to convert there images to jpg before uploading. Most of them will not understand about what we are talking.
As I understand heic is already supported by ImageMagick, il is just an option to trigger when compiling.

Thank you for your input! We will consider this functionality in upcoming releases if it will be popular. Everyone, please continue voting for this feature if you consider it important.

Customers are asking for support for this format, please include it in the PHP versions where this is possible. It would make our lives and our customers a lot easier.
Having to maintain an (unsupported) imagick extension is a burden. WEBP popularity is declining in favour of AVIF, which is also not supported with ImageMagick 6.9.
We really would like to see Plesk's PHP versions support modern image formats such as AVIF, JPEG-XL, HEIF and of course HEIC. I know GD has support for AVIF, but this still does not enable us to support Mac / iOS users which would like to upload their HEIC photos. That would be the end goal. Thank you for considering this.

Hello Plesk Staff,
France is one of the countries with a large bunch of IOS devices, we need a solution to handle Heic / HeiF image files.
A php extension would be just fine for most of us.
Thanks for considering our suggestions -
