I have tried both include profiles and don't include. The pdf that is made is RGB however the colour numbers change. How do I get the RGB numbers in the pdf to stay the same as the RGB numbers in the illustrator document?

How do you check the changed color numbers?

If you reopen it in Illustrator, it doesn't read the exported PDF, instead it reopens the original Illustrator document. So you can't use this to check. Expect raster images to shift slightly because lossy JPEG compression is used.


It depends on how you save the PDF, when saved without Illustrator Editing capabilities, it will read the values from the PDF.
