Hi,

I am not a pro in Illustrator, I don't know how to solve.

I downloaded an illustration from a paying website and it's in RGB.

I wanted to use it in a CMYK file but when If I try to convert the file to CMYK, the gradient (circle) shows the edge of the path. Can anyone help me solve the issue. I am in the middle of the project, earliest support will be much helpful please.

I had attached the files.

01 - RGB File (Downloaded File)

02 - CMYK File (After change the document color mode)

Do you want to use the complete image in another file or are you copying parts from it?

 

If the complete file, the easiest method would be:

Use the RGB file and then export it as a JPEG (sufficient size and resolution, highest quality, keep the color mode)

Convert it to CMYK in Photoshop (or don't convert it) and place it as an RGB image in your other file

Export the other file as PDF and convert to CMYK
