Hello. I'm in trouble.

I have some .ai vectors but when I save it in .svg the colours of the images changes. Anyone knows how to fix it? Samples above.

MY ORIGINAL .AI

MY SAVED .SVG

Best regards,

Yes.

You need to convert that Ai file to RGB (it's best to work with an sRGB color profile) and then check all the colors and adjust them where needed.

You were drawing in a CMYK file. SVG doesn't support that and converted automaitcally.

On top of that: SVG is the deliverable format. Always save your work file as AI.

First thanks for the answear.

I have all in .ai but I need .svg to upload to my website. So if I work with RGB file I won't have trouble with the colours?

Best regards,

Irina

Hallo dear, sorry I've been a bit sick but I printed the image so you can see.

Some of the fills with gradient (not all of them) are the ones showing problems when I save it in .svg

Kisses.


THat's a different image.

And can you please show before and after?

Even better would be to have the actual AI files.
