Why don't matching RGB values show in Output Preview

Question

I have a PDF when I open in Illustrator in RGB color mode it shows the values as 0/51/102. When I use output preview and select sRGB IEC61966-2.1 (or any other RGB simulation profile) it shows different values. Is there a simulation profile I can use to correctly show the same RGB values?

Hi @Dylan27463100t7vi,

Thanks for reaching out.

While I check internally if we have a similar option available in Acrobat. I think the next best thing you can try is to use "Object Inspector" from the "Output Preview" from the Preview dropdown and choose the option "Object Inspector," and click on the object that should give you RGB value.

Or you can try using the "Ink Mangers" option as well.

Let us know if that is useful.
