Yes, because it doesn’t do black width and GCR :-)

Sure. Here’s the lazy version for Terminalphobics who would prefer to drag and drop and not have to properly install ArgyllCMS:
1. Open the Terminal and type “cd” (not the quotes) and a space. Drag the bin folder from your downloaded version of Argyll on the Terminal window and hit return.
2. Type
./collink -v -ke -G -ip
Add a space and then drag & drop the AdobeRGB1998 profile on the Terminal window followed by the GRACoL2006_Coated1v2 profile and then type the name that you’d like to call your profile e.g. aRGB_2_GRACoL2006.icc
Hit return and collink will build your gamut mapped device link profile and save it into the bin folder.
3. Make a test image — Argyll’s default is good for this test — it will also be saved into the bin folder:
./timage -v -r1200 -s -x myTestImage.tif
4. Convert the test image using your new device link:
./cctiff -v [drag & drop your device link profile] [drag & drop the test image] myCMYK.tif
[The converted image is untagged (you can easily tag the images in Argyll, but I wanted to keep the above as stripped down and as simple as possible.]
Open the converted image and look at the yellow channel in the right hexagon :-)
