Incorrect conversion from JPG CMYK => RGB (using Image Magick convert works) about rmagick HOT 13 CLOSED

Thanks for the details! This looks like an issue that has been affecting several people lately. We'll look into it as soon as we have a free moment, hopefully this weekend.

It looks like the issue was caused by an ImageMagick function change in version 6.5.1 and forward. RMagick in source should be fixed to use the new function when available, and the change will be in the next release.

If you can, please try to compile from source and see if the fix works for you. If not, please reopen.

I cloned rmagick from github and followed the instructions on http://github.com/rmagick/rmagick/blob/master/README.rc but still got the same result as before.

How can I confirm that I'm indeed running the rmagick built from source? Long_version reports (I had separately upgraded to the latest gem using sudo gem install rmagick, so I was already on 2.13.1):

If you're running RMagick from source, the version of RMagick should be 0.0.0 (since it's unreleased). You may need to remove the RMagick gem before doing an install from source.

Fix worked, thanks!

It would be nice to have an official release with this fix, any plans for that?

from rmagick.

Yes - a release with this fix would be greatly appreciated! :)

This bug seems to be present again :(

from rmagick.

yes i can confirm that the bug is present again =/

from rmagick.

This bug is still present in 2.13.1

Is there at least a known work around?

from rmagick.

here too. using 2.13.1

from rmagick.

got it working like this:

# source image must have a cmyk color profile. if not, you have to assign a standard profile.
# you get those icc profiles on the interwebs
unless image.color_profile
  image.add_profile("#{Rails.root}/lib/USWebCoatedSWOP.icc")
end

# then you assing a rgb profile. this converts the image to rgb.
image.add_profile("#{Rails.root}/lib/sRGB.icc") 

# you dont need the profiles anymore
image.strip!

schneikai: solution not worked for me. Using RMagic 2.13.1 and sRGB v4 profile.
