Hello @Teresa25302080zzjs,

 

We are sorry for the trouble. We are able to reproduce the issue at our end. We have already logged a bug with the product team, and they are currently investigating the issue.

In the meanwhile, I would request to try the steps shared on this community post by Anshul (https://community.adobe.com/t5/illustrator-discussions/png-images-are-inverted-colors-when-opening-saved-file/m-p/12981938#M323941) and check if it helps.

 

Looking forward to hearing from you.

There is no workflow I can think of where placing .png in Illustrator is the best file workflow. Resave and place as.psd instead and your issue should go away.

 

You also may have the .png as indexed color, and if you open in photoshop and make RGB and resave that also can resolve this.

The option to embed the image on the inverted file become ununembed because the images ar already embedded but inverted in colors.

The only workaround is to relink every single image and save without include linked files but is quite annoying because this behaviour wasn't present in older version of AI.

There are currently some issues with linked PNG that could be related.
