clippath on png not working

[kriks]

Hi,

to workaround the fact that ghostscript can't handle CMYKA images, I first generate a RGB PNG with the profiles, the colors are good but the background is white.

Now, I would like to extract the outer part of the clip path which is still inside the PNG,

I use :

Code: Select all

convert -verbose 841267_test.png -alpha On -fill none -clip 841267_test2.png

but the background remains white.

here is a identify -verbose on 841267_test.png :

Code: Select all

# identify -verbose 841267_test.png
