Bugs in PSD support

I am evaluating ImageMagick and I have encountered some problems with the PSD layers. All tests were made on Windows 7 64-bit with the ImageMagick-6.7.1-Q16-windows.zip standalone release of ImageMagick. Conversion was made without any options (convert <file1> <file2>)

Problems are:
1. PSD file in 8-bit grayscale with ICC profile. I have added the new layer and saved in Photoshop Express. After the conversion the layer contents were corrupted.

2. The same file with the same layer. Converted to RGB in Photoshop Express. After conversion, the layer is OK but the background is cyanish.

3. PSD file in RGB with ICC profile. Added the layer with some brush strokes. After conversion the layer is misaligned. It looks like the offset was calculated taking the leftmost layer element into account.

I would be very happy if these problems can be repaired. ImageMagick is a terrific software and we will be very eager to use it but those bugs makes it impossible :(

PSD for grayscale images has had a bug for a while that to my knowledge has not yet been fixed. Search the archives for "PSD grayscale". For example see viewtopic.php?f=3&t=17039

I did it. The PSD grayscale bug has been corrected in one of the releases and in fact it works. The problem seems to touch the layer support inside of PSD files.
