Identification of the Color Space for an Image (RGB or CMYK)

Post by insipidtoast »

I've got images on my hard drive, and I have images embedded in LyX but I don't know if they are in CMYK or RGB. How do I find out?
FYI:
I'm using windows with LyX 2.0 and MiKTeX 2.9
I'm designing a book using the Koma-script class

The [url=http://imagemagick,org]ImageMagick[/url] bundle has some useful command line tools. Among them is »identify«. With an appropriate parameter it spits out helpful information.

Code: Select all

identify -verbose ‹filename›.png
It goes without saying that PNG here is only an example for a file format.
