pastorgary Posted November 20, 2018 Posted November 20, 2018 Hi All, In one of the last few updates, I noticed that when placing or importing color images into a document they turn black and white. What happened and/or did I goof something up? Thanks, Gary
Wosven Posted November 20, 2018 Posted November 20, 2018 Hi, Can you use colors for text and other forms in those documents? Is the assigned profil for those documents a color profil or a greyscale one? Perhaps you can add a document to your post as example.

pastorgary Posted December 5, 2018 Author Posted December 5, 2018 Hi all, sorry for the delay. I can take a color photo (jpg) and drag and drop it into a document. The photo is still in color when I have it held, but as soon as I let it go to place it, the photo turns black and white! This happened after one of the updates. I can't explain too much more than that. It is baffling.

papanorts Posted December 5, 2018 Posted December 5, 2018 Hi. I fell for this too and eventually discovered that it was because I had a grey profile instead of an RGB. Go to Document Setup, Colour Tab and set your Colour Format to RGB. Magic! I think it defaults to Grey.
