    ​@ERHANOZDEN I think I would be best if you could share the document (or at least the part of the document) that shows the problem. There is a paperclip icon when you answer the post that allows you to upload the .ai file.

    ​@ERHANOZDEN Is this a CMYK document?

    Hi @ERHANOZDEN,

    Thank you for reaching out and sharing the screenshot. Since it's hard to see the difference in the screenshot. Would you mind sharing a few more details to help us investigate the issue?

    The details of your operating system & the version of Illustrator installed on your machine.
    Does that happen with all files or with all files?
    Are you seeing the difference after exporting the file?
    A screen recording of the workflow would help us investigate better.

    Let us know and we will be happy to assist you further.


    Thanks,

    Harshika
