Sorry bout not posting the script...
This problem script was just the default "Match to CMYK" script that
came with OS X. I re-ran the script this morning on a number of
different formats (jpg, bmp, pdf, png, raw & tif), but the only format
that I could get it to work on was TIFF. Is this right? Is the only
format you can alter via ColorSyncScripting a TIFF file?
If this is the case, then I might just need to get Photoshop. I was
hoping to find a way to do JPEG's and EPS's. Anyways, here's apple's
applescript. If it works for JPEG's on someone else's machine can you
let me know?
Ahh ok, this makes some sense.
JPEG, BMP, PNG, RAW (?) don't appear to be supported by the OS for CMYK
(try generating a CMYK version of these files in Photoshop and opening
it in Preview).
CMYK JPEG is not standard, but Photoshop has done it for a long time,
so some (few) apps support it.
BMP and PNG don't have any official CMYK support that I know.
PSD and TIFF should work, at very least.
It's not a problem with the script, it's just with what you're trying
to do. Photoshop will allow you to save JPEGs as CMYK (and TIFF and PSD
of course), but not the others. I'd rethink what you're trying to do
and why.
Anyhow, for the normal cases - TIFF output - this script should work
fine.
Best,
Roger
