Package: graphicsmagick-imagemagick-compat
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

I tried to use convert from graphicsmagick to convert an AdobeRGB image to 
CMYK, using the ECI profile "ISOcoated_v2_300_eci.icc" from the ECI website. It 
converted the image to use only the CMY colors, not CMYK. The K channel was 
there, but it was empty. Now I have converted the same image with the same ICC 
profile using the original imagemagick convert (6.8.9-9 Q16), and the K channel 
is doing it's part, with a max value of 0.959 and a mean of 0.797 (so it's not 
like the image has no black).

It looks like the conversion that is labelled CMYK converts only to CMY. That 
would be misleading (there is a seperate option for CMY). If CMYK can't be 
supported right now, please consider adding a warning, so that people don't 
produce botched CMYK conversions. Imagemagick is actually the recommended linux 
tool for that, so it is likely people will try to use graphicsmagick for it.

Thanks for your effort!

Michael
