PPPeter Posted July 12, 2023 Share Posted July 12, 2023 When changing colour profile in document setup one would think that "Assign" keeps the set CMYK values and "Convert" changes them to the new colour space. But this is not the case, both settings changes the CMYK values. How do I assign a colour profile without changing the values?! Also; if I copy an object from a document with one colour profile to a document with a different colour profile the CMYK values change. This is not how colour profiles should work. In the most common workflow is that you design stuff with set CMYK values and assign the colour profile the printshop wants. I can see the point of being able to convert colours but this is not something you do most of the time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Staff Lee D Posted July 12, 2023 Staff Share Posted July 12, 2023 @PPPeter Can you take me through your workflow for this process and which profile you're starting with (Document Setup) and assigning and checking values? You have the option of selecting a different profile when exporting, have you tried this method? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
