I'm afraid ConvertColorspace is more a proof of concept than a working solution. 
It simply modifies all setStroking/setNonStroking calls to use CMYK values 
instead of RGB values but it doesn't modify anything else like colorspaces, 
images etc.

I tend to remove it to avoid avoid such missunderstandings.
