Preserving ICC Color Profile in image conversion.

Question

Hi-
I'm quite lost on how to preserve a color profile using the JAI tools. I'm hoping somebody can help.
Basically, I have a TIF, which I read the image and it's metadata, and can dump everything out showing the non-standard embedded color profile. Then I want to save the image as a jpg with the same color profile information embedded, but it doesn't seem to be automatic, and I can't find the proper API.
I'm actually shooting for JPeg2000, but I'm using standard JPG for now, so that I can easily open the resulting image up in photoshop to see the embedded color profile.
My read code is something like this:
BufferedImage img = null;
IIOMetadata md = null;
ImageTypeSpecifier spec = null;
Iterator<ImageReader> readers = ImageIO.getImageReadersByFormatName("TIFF");
ImageReader reader = readers.next();
md = reader.getImageMetadata(0);
ImageInputStream iis = ImageIO.createImageInputStream(new File("foo.tif"));
reader.setInput(iis);
TIFFImageMetadata tmd = (TIFFImageMetadata)md;
TIFFField f = tmd.getTIFFField(BaselineTIFFTagSet.TAG_ICC_PROFILE);
ICC_Profile p = ICC_Profile.getInstance(f.getAsBytes());
ICC_ColorSpace cs = new ICC_ColorSpace(p);
spec = ImageTypeSpecifier.createInterleaved(cs, new int[] {0}, DataBuffer.TYPE_BYTE, false, false);
ImageReadParam rp = new TIFFImageReadParam();
rp.setDestinationType(spec);
img = reader.read(0, rp);
And my write code is something like this:
Iterator<ImageWriter> writers = ImageIO.getImageWritersByFormatName("JPG");
ImageWriter writer = writers.next();
ImageOutputStream ios = ImageIO.createImageOutputStream(new File("foo.jpg"));
writer.setOutput(ios);
ImageWriteParam wp = configWriteParam(writer);
wp.setDestinationType(spec);
writer.write(md, new IIOImage(img, null, md), wp);
Any ideas for me? I'm completely stumped.
Thanks!

It worked fine before but than one day (don't remember for sure when) it started not working. I think I probably updated my Photoshop at the same time so something may have changed there.
Hello Sergei,
First of all, Welcome to the  Discussions forums!
Have you Repaired Permissions after the Photoshop update on that machine?
