Finally, found some PHP code that makes sense :-)
(source: http://forums.digitalpoint.com/showthread.php?t=475864)


Parameters:
        $rgb    -   an array of color information where
                    $rgb[0] == red value
                    $rgb[1] == green value
                    $rgb[2] == blue value
    Returns:
        array containing cmyk color information:
            $array[0] == cyan value
            $array[1] == magenta value
            $array[2] == yellow value
            $array[3] == black value
*/
function RGB_to_CMYK($rgb)
{
    $cyan = 1 - ($rgb[0] / 255);
    $magenta = 1 - ($rgb[1] / 255);
    $yellow = 1 - ($rgb[2] / 255);

    $min = min($cyan, $magenta, $yellow);
    
    if ($min == 1)
        return array(0,0,0,1);

    $K = $min;
    $black = 1 - $K;

    return array
    (
        ($cyan - $K) / $black,
        ($magenta- $K) / $black,
        ($yellow - $K) / $black,
        $K
    );
}

I'm no expert on color conversions, but I am reading it as 1 = 100%.  So, if
you have an RGB image with values ranging from 0 - 255, then convert it to a
percent first then subtract it from R.  

For example, if you have RGB values of 200, 100, 255:

r = 200/255 = .7843
g = 100/255 = .3921
b = 255/255 = 1.0

Then CMY = (1-.7843, 1-.3921, 1-1.0) or (C=0.2157, M=0.6079, Y=0.0)

Hi Even,

Thanks for the info, but I need it other way round - RGB to CMYK conversion.
As Frank said, it's possible to create a CMYK result using gdal_translate
giving it an extra band as a parameter (i.e. -b 1 -b 2 -b 3 -b 1), but the
end result is of no use since that extra band (along with R, G and B) takes
some color mangling I'm not very familiar with. And there's not much to read
about it, here's what I found (citations ahead):

http://semmix.pl/color/extrans/etr10.htm

Transformation RGB, CMY, CMYK
Formal transformation of the components RGB into the components CMY or
inversely is as follows:

we have color RGB=(r,g,b) then color CMY=(1-r,1-g,1-b) we have color
CMY=(c,m,y) then color RGB=(1-c,1-m,1-y).

Transformation of CMY into CMYK is presented as algorithm:
k=min(c,m,y), CMYK=(c-k,m-k,y-k,k)

This explanation seems sane enough, but then: "we have color RGB=(r,g,b)
then color CMY=(1-r,1-g,1-b)" is giving me a headache with "1-r" etc. part.
What do they mean by "1-r"? :-)

Furthermore, RGB to CMYK is supported by .NET 3.5 only, and giving it a shot
via GDAL managed wrappers is also viable solution (thanks Tamas for
LoadBitmapDirect and SaveBitmapDirect C# examples). I'm working with .NET
2.0 and can't use this approach, but here's the code anyways (author
unknown):

using System;
using System.IO;
using System.Windows.Forms;
using System.Windows.Media;
using System.Windows.Media.Imaging;
...

Stream imageStream = new FileStream(@"C:\temp\mike4.jpg", FileMode.Open,
FileAccess.Read, FileShare.Read);   
BitmapSource myBitmapSource = BitmapFrame.Create(imageStream);   
  
FormatConvertedBitmap newFormatedBitmapSource = new FormatConvertedBitmap();

newFormatedBitmapSource.BeginInit();   
newFormatedBitmapSource.Source = myBitmapSource;   
newFormatedBitmapSource.DestinationFormat = PixelFormats.Cmyk32;   
newFormatedBitmapSource.EndInit();   
  
BitmapEncoder encoder = new TiffBitmapEncoder();   
encoder.Frames.Add(BitmapFrame.Create(newFormatedBitmapSource));   
Stream cmykStream = new FileStream(@"C:\temp\mike4_CMYK.tif",
FileMode.Create, FileAccess.Write, FileShare.Write);   
encoder.Save(cmykStream);   
cmykStream.Close();  


Again, it would be great if someone could explain how to do it via GDAL
wrappers running on .NET 2.0 (I'm using GDAL build from FWTools).

Maksim Sestic

Maksim,

I've just done a few changes in the GeoTIFF driver to enable basic CMYK
support.

See the log message of http://trac.osgeo.org/gdal/changeset/15178.
And for examples : http://trac.osgeo.org/gdal/changeset/15179.

Even
