Hello, 

 

I finnaly finished my first ever indesign project for print but something happend to my colors.

The background of the logo should be the same color as the total background. I didn't recive a logo with a transparent background so I thought I just place an extra backround behind it in the same colour to fill up the white space. But somehow, during export the logo background changes a bit. 
Does anyone know how to fix this?

I followed sevral video's and instruction about exporting for print but they all have this problem. 
I've tried the Adobe PDF Preset: {PFD/X-4:2008] , [High Quality Print]
Colour conversion: No colour conversion,  convert to destination, (with and without, preserve numbers) 
Destination (when possible): Coated FOGRA39 (ISO 12647--2:2004) I heard this is the right one for EU (Netherlands)

 

The pdf print exported


In indesign v

PNG knows only RGB but has no colormanagement. It is not a print type.

For a logo try to get an PDF/X-4 or AI file.
