Exec with ImageMagick

[whookam2000]

Hi there,

I am using exec to run an ImageMagick convert function on some images. I need to use profiles and have lcsm installed and working.

If I run the following at the from the terminal with the Adobe1998 profile in the same directory then all is peachy. image2.tif then has the correct profile.

convert image1.tif -profile AdobeRGB1998.icc image2.tif

If I run this with PHP,

<?php

exec("/usr/local/bin/convert image1.tif -profile AdobeRGB1998.icc image2.tif");

?>

The convert function ignores th eprofile command completely. I think I might have the profile file in the wrong place but I've tried putting it in many different places. When exec is used does it default the execution from a default folder?

Cheers,

Steve

After some investigation I found out that it worked with all the other RGB profiles. I downloaded a fresh copy from Adobe and there was a few bytes difference in the file size. Put it in the Colorsync folder and now it works.

Still doesn't explain why it worked from the command line though - strange.
