I'm chasing a color problem that occurs for one of our images which appears in different green tones in different viewers.
Most image viewers render it light green.
Some image viewers render it dark green:
(Depending on your browser this will appear to you light or dark green)
Note: The dark green color is the intended color tone.
Running gm convert isolated-in.jpg png:isolated-out.png
persists this light green for all image renderes.
I understand that there must be a corruption of the color profile of the source image. Infact, there seems to be no Color profile set. However, some image tools render it correctly, making me beliefe there is a different "guess" on the profile.
Can I, with gm identify
and/or gm convert
correct for the missing/corrupted color profile of the source and persist the correct color, which is dark green, by a better guess of the color profile?
With the help of https://graphicdesign.stackexchange.com/questions/160359/issue-with-color-profile-of-cmyk-image I found the solution for us:
convert -profile "U.S. Web Coated (SWOP) v2.icm" input.jpg -profile sRGB_v4_ICC_preference.icc out-27.png
I downloaded the two profiles from official sources.
