I think littlecms <http://www.littlecms.com/> is more suitable for this
purpose. Try something like this:
path/to/lcms/bin/icclink -t1 -f1 -o web2news_lcms.icc ISOwebcoated.icc
ISOnewspaper.icc
(relative colorimetric, no black point compensation, -- Attention!
Clipping!)
this:
... icclink -t1 -b -f1 ...
(relative with black point compensation)
this:
... icclink -t0 -f1 ...
(perceptual)
or this:
... icclink -t3 -f1 ...
(saturation)
Your destination profile establishes the separation. It must allow 100%
K in either case.
the most important lcms-icclink-flags are:
-o<profile> - Output devicelink profile. [defaults to 'devicelink.icm']
-t<0,1,2,3> - Intent (0=Perceptual, 1=Colorimetric, 2=Saturation,
3=Absolute)
-c<0,1,2> - Precission (0=LowRes, 1=Normal, 2=Hi-res) [defaults to 1]
-n<gridpoints> - Alternate way to set precission, number of CLUT points
-d<description> - description text (quotes can be used)
-b - Black point compensation
-f<0,1> - Black preserving 0=off, 1=K ink only 2=K plane
