It would seem if you're mildly open to such a change that you could accomplish your automation needs and solve your licensing dilemma by switching to a more open image processing system. The Gimp (available for Linux and Windows, and maybe others to) has a powerful scripting system, and is Open Source.

GIMP is certainly one option, the other is ImageMagick (http://www.imagemagick.org).

I'm not familiar with how extensive The Gimp's TIFF and/or CMYK support might be,

GIMP handles TIFF, but no support for CMYK. ImageMagick handles CMYK.
