Can somebody please tell me why my colours change when I come to export my design.  I have tried leaving the profile as the default settings and I have also changed it to my Ink suppliers ICC.  When I toggle between the 2 settings, I can see a difference but when I export the images save the same.  The pink tones get changed to coral/brownish tones & blues and greens get changed to purple/lilacs.  I am new to all this so your help will be very much appreciated

Hi @TRyan and Welcome to the Forums,

If you open the exported image back in Affinity, how does it look?  One thing with the Photos app in Windows, it isn't colour managed so isn't the best app to check things in.  Also you shouldn't really be exporting with the profile for your printer, as that will be using CMYK and you have a RGB document, so that could cause some changes to the colours as the RGB to CMYK conversion isn't a like for like match of colours.

Hi when I open the exported image back into affinity it looks ok.  However, I want to upload to facebook and instagram, but when I tried it, it uploaded with the wrong colours.   Is there anyway I can save the image as it's showing in affinity?
