Post any defects you find in the released or beta versions of the ImageMagick software here. Include the ImageMagick version, OS, and any command-line required to reproduce the problem. Got a patch for a bug? Post it here.
I have an issue with the 2 images below: the first one is created on Linux , the second one on Windows using the same command , same versions of ImageMagick (6.6.5-0) Tried newer versions of IM and they all seem to provide different results Windows vs. Linux.
convert c.jpg -sepia-tone 80% 1.jpg (on Linux)
convert c.jpg -sepia-tone 80% 2.jpg (on Windows)
the results are very different and i cannot figure out why.
I am not sure about your current IM version, but for versions after 6.7.8.3 all grayscale images are treated as linear rather than sRGB. This means that they will look darker than normal. So you may need to convert from RGB to sRGB before processing your grayscale image.
My guess is that -sepia-tone is expecting or converting a color image into grayscale before applying the sepia-tone. From IM 6.7.5.5 (or 6.7.6.7) colorspace RGB and sRGB were swapped (to make them correct). Furthermore after IM 6.7.8.3 grayscale images were considered linear. Thus in IM 6.8.0.0, this works for me. Your input is true sRGB, but the conversion by sepiatone makes it linear grayscale. Thus one needs to tell it to think the image is linear even though sRGB, (that is make it think it is RGB). So this works to reproduce your Linux results on my Mac OSX Snow Leopard, IM 6.8.0.0 Q16
I suspect you have mixed versions of IM and are getting different results due to the changes that took place over some time in IM. I would suggest you upgrade to something after IM 6.7.8.3.
The darker of your two result could be that IM is converting it to linear and that would make it darker. You could try on your Windows, the suggestion by henrywho
since the earlier versions were treating RGB as sRGB and sRGB as RGB, so the above would try to make the grayscale version be treated (not converted) as a proper linear RGB
So basically forcing Windows to convert it to RGB.
The sRGB conversation was close but it actually had to be RGB.
That would be correct if you IM version was greater than 6.7.6.7 (or more likely 6.7.8.3). But you claim it is 6.6.5.0. So that is strange to me. Are you sure of your IM versions and that you don't have multiple versions.
I checked a few times. And on Windows i actually copied convert.exe from the standalone win version of IM to a new folder and did -version first and then ran the command in command prompt and it worked. Version is indeed 6.6.5.0.
