Hi core team and other fellows,
I and some other photographers have the problem, that even with the new option to use the ImageMagick engine, the embedded icc profile is striped while generating thumbnails and mid sized images. A embedded profile is now read by FF, Safari and Chrome. I tried the "ImageMagick engine" plugin aswell as the "onet regenerate thumbnails" plugin. Both also remove the profile.
Could someone provide a patch? I tried it myself but got no luck. On the command line it is easy:
(ImageMagick installed manually)
convert 1.jpg 2.jpg
will create a new file and keep everything. You can resize and make some stuff, but the profile will be kept.
convert 1.jpg 1.icc
will extract the profile
If you have a striped file (no profiles at all) for example
convert 1.jpg -strip 2.jpg
and then import your previously extracted icc profile convert 2.jpg -profile 1.icc 3.jpg
all is fine.
Core hackers or plugin developers - is this heavy to implement? A imagick PHP module driven patch is good aswell. (and if I could use the imagemagick-sharpen-resized-images plugin that would be super)
Thanks, Gabriel
