Hi, does anybody knows why illustrator change colors when you try to do export for web?
And how to fix it?
1 illo - in illustrator
2 illo - after export

In which colorspace aree you in?

Which color profile do you use?

Do you convert to profile?

Attach profile when exporting?

Which app do you use to check the exported image?

1 RGB

2 Emmulate Adobe Illustrator
3 No, i just Save for Web -

There is no option with color profile

4 No
5 Photopreview on MAC, photoshop, everywhere

"Emulate Illustrator 6" turns off color management. And you see the result of that.

You will need to turn on color management and learn all about it.

For the moment try and set it to "Your region/Web & Internet". Turn on all the warnings about profile mismatch. Assign an sRGB profile to your document, don't convert color values.

If the result is, tht your colors are off, try the following: close the document without assigning a profile. But have your working profile set to sRGB. Then open the document. There will be a warning about profile mismatch. Select "Convert to profile".

And then export the artwork using that profile as well.

but colors in illustrator space changed to the "wrong" colors (number 2 picture)

If neither attaching a color profile nor "converting to color profile" work, you will have to redo your colors.

Just don't work without using color management. It's everywhere these days. It's been around for 20 years now and it won't go away. Browsers have color management.

You need to learn color management, calibrate and then configure your system.

THis is just scratching the surface of it:

Set up color management
