Hello, I have searched online for two days and found nothing, and this is after trying to fix this myself. I need some help, please. I am designing several documents in RGB. This is going well and I can place images and do the normal whatnot. The issue is that the document colors change from RGB to CMYK automatically when something triggers it, and there is no way to reverse the process. Once this happens the entire document is screwed and I have to start from the very beginning and recreate everything and hope that it does not happen again. The trigger "seems to be" (it is a bit random) when I duplicate a text box or paste text from notepad (I am using the latest version of ID on a Mac). I have my palette set in swatches to 7 colors, all selected from the RGB spectrum and I have deleted any reference to CMYK except for "black"). I am using blue text so it is easy to see when the color drains to an ugly grayish blue. The process usually goes like this: I am typing and working and placing images, and everything is fine. Then something happens (like an errant keystroke, but none that I can tell) and when I am typing words the entire text switches color. If I select the text and click on my various swatches I get CMYK variants of those, and not the ones that are right there in the tiny square next to the label. Even if I CMD Z ll of the way back the document is now set in CMYK and refuses to use the colors I tell it to. It gives me a different set of colors ID thinks I should have. This has to be a bug, or some asinine throwback to the stone age. I would ask the Adobe techs, but they won't answer a question like this. I can provide screenshots if necessary. Does anyone have ANY ideas on what causes this? Thanks in advance.
