I don’t know.
But RGB2CMYK is a hell of a lot easier to use and for that reason it will 
probably work better. Just upload your file and it’s done.

I’m a graphic designer/photographer not a geek (not any more, anyway). I like 
things that work right out of the box and this online conversion worked for me.

Thanks for the link.  Would this service do a better conversion than 
ImageMagick?

Thanks!

Peace...

  Subject: [Gimp-user] Question about RGB to CMYK conversion and print work 

  I'm helping a friend of mine create a business card for a new business. 
  I created the card in GIMP and it looks great!  The plan is to order 
  cards through VistaPrint.   Anyway, according to the VistaPrint website, 
  they recommend uploading designs in a CMYK mode.   Since I created my 
  card in GIMP, it's in RGB mode. 

  Would it be safe to convert my image from RGB to CMYK, using ImageMagick 
  for example, or should I recreate it using a different tool, like 
  Scribus?  I'm a Linux user.   Alternatively, I could send the image to a 
  friend who has PhotoShop and have her convert the image to CYMK mode for me. 

  Any thoughts or suggestions? 

  Thanks! 

  Peace... 

  Tom
