Description

Is there a way to remove the ICC Profile from an image? This is really all I need to do. I'm processing images from mobile devices and came across this issue where on my Android Device there is no ICC profile when shooting with the camera, but on the iPhone there is an ICC profile that causing some issues when in the facial recognition. I'm not familiar with JIMP, but did my research and did not find the answer.

Thanks

Research direction
Check if JIMP currently exposes ICC profile data. If not, look into adding a method to remove or ignore the ICC profile when decoding images. Explore the underlying image libraries (like jpeg js) for ICC profile handling and implement a way to strip it.
