Colour Profile change when Exporting JPG from Ai 2020.

[@ShirlB]

Hi,

I have two saved JPGs from the same Ai file, one (right side) is saved after update of software (2019-2020), as in I deleted and reinstalled.

Is this why this is happening? Or am I missing something 🙂 

The HUE set in the document is still the same, but once saved the colour profile is changing to LCD, which is showing a change in the colour of the art work. Help 😞 Thank You In Advance 🙂

Please show your Adobe Illustrator colour settings in the problem version of Illustrator.

And please show the JPEG export dialog with settings filled in.

The hope is to find something simple rather than a bug that will be difficult to resolve.

Whoa, what happened to my picture...!

Thanks, there is good info here. Especially in the Export settings, here are mine (you may have to return to the forum to see any pictures). Notice the profile name. Yours is "Monitor", which is bad. Maybe Edit > Assign Profile. Picture follows, maybe...

I see in your color setting that your Color Management Policies are set to Preserve Embedded Profiles for RGB.

I guess that you Opened the jpeg in Illustrator. That means it will keep the RGB profile and not be converted to your sRGB working space.

You can change this for future imports by setting the Color Management Policies for RGB to Convert to Working Space.

I think I've done it, I've gone into 'Assign Profile' within Ai. This was all created/exported from Illustrator from the same file. So fingers crossed its worked, thank you so much for your advice, I will go have a look at this too. 🙂

Once I clicked 'don't...' i went back in and the sRGB option came back! 🙂

I don't think Assign Profile in Illustrator is the right way.

Assign Profile leaves the color numbers the same, it just changes the interpretation of the numbers and will show a different color.

Illustrator does not have a Convert to Profile like Photoshop.

For existing export from Illustrator, converting in Photoshop is the correct way to change the profile.
