Filed an issue on DSpace issue tracker for the filter-media bug that causes it to process JPGs even when limiting to the PDF thumbnail plugin: DS-3516
Discovered that the ImageMagic filter-media plugin creates JPG thumbnails with the CMYK colorspace when the source PDF is using CMYK
Interestingly, it seems DSpace 4.x’s thumbnails were sRGB, but forcing regeneration using DSpace 5.x’s ImageMagick plugin creates CMYK JPGs if the source PDF was CMYK (see 10568⁄51999):

<li>Skype with Michael and Peter, discussing moving the CGIAR Library to CGSpace</li>
<li>CGIAR people possibly open to moving content, redirecting library.cgiar.org to CGSpace and letting CGSpace resolve their handles</li>
<li>They might come in at the top level in one “CGIAR System” community, or with several communities</li>
<li>I need to spend a bit of time looking at the multiple handle support in DSpace and see if new content can be minted in both handles, or just one?</li>
<li>Need to send Peter and Michael some notes about this in a few days</li>
<li>Also, need to consider talking to Atmire about hiring them to bring ORCiD metadata to REST / OAI</li>

<li>Discovered that the ImageMagic <code>filter-media</code> plugin creates JPG thumbnails with the CMYK colorspace when the source PDF is using CMYK</li>
<li>Interestingly, it seems DSpace 4.x’s thumbnails were sRGB, but forcing regeneration using DSpace 5.x’s ImageMagick plugin creates CMYK JPGs if the source PDF was CMYK (see <ahref="https://cgspace.cgiar.org/handle/10568/51999"><sup>10568</sup>⁄<sub>51999</sub></a>):</li>
<li>I created a patch for DS-3517 and made a pull request against upstream <code>dspace-5_x</code>: <ahref="https://github.com/DSpace/DSpace/pull/1669">https://github.com/DSpace/DSpace/pull/1669</a></li>
<li>Looks like <code>-colorspace sRGB</code> alone isn’t enough, we need to use profiles:</li>
<li>This is a great resource describing the color stuff: <ahref="http://www.imagemagick.org/Usage/formats/#profiles">http://www.imagemagick.org/Usage/formats/#profiles</a></li>
<li>This is trivial with <code>identify</code> (even by the <ahref="http://im4java.sourceforge.net/api/org/im4java/core/IMOps.html#identify">Java ImageMagick API</a>):</li>
<li>But there are hundreds of combinations of fields and values (like <code>dc.subject</code> and all the center subjects), and we can’t use wildcards in REST!</li>
