Broken PSD file from JPEG with embedded path

Post by c.mueller »

Hi there

i have a serious problem with NConvert.
I try to convert a JPEG to PSD, but the resulting file is not readable by Photoshop.
This occurs only, when the source image already has some meta-data (EXIF, XMP, ...) and an embedded path.

Unfortunately i have to preserve any given path.

The command i run:
./NConvert/nconvert -overwrite -icc_ie -icc_intent 0 -icc_in "" -icc_out "./colorprofiles/AdobeRGB1998.icc" -out psd -o somefile.psd somefile.jpg
If i open the source image (JPEG) in Photoshop and save it as a PSD, everything is fine...
By the way XnConvert also produces this broken file.

I hope someone can help me with this.
