Hi there,

I'm working on 32bit linear workflow. Everything is ok while working in After Effects but when i render my comp with alpha i got color difference. When i import it again it looks different from my comp. I tried to use color profile converter but the result is different still. 

Got any idea how i can fix this issue? If so could you please explain what i'm doing wrong?

You are rendering an 8-bit file. That's the first problem with your workflow. Change Millions of colors to trillions, set color to Straight because Pre-multiplied always fiddles the edges, Straight Alpha is the industry standard, Straight Alpha is the default for AE and Premiere Pro and every other NLE I know of, then render your production master.

 

You are still going to run into issues when you share the work because H.264 is the standard format and it is only 8 but and the color is compressed. You have to design around the limitations of the formats.
