CMYK encoded jpegs are technically within spec ( https://www.itu.int/rec/T-REC-T.872-201206-I/en) but are exceedingly uncommon and support is pretty sporatic. Typically a JPEG contains RGB data encoded as YCbCr. If your application strictly requires CMYK data, you probably want to consider another file format.

Subject: [WLUG] CMYK jpeg
 
Anybody know of an easy tool to convert an image into a CMYK color
space jpeg? I found an online site that works but would like to do it
on my machine. Searching has only found how to do it for tiff files.
