PDF colors wrong on ipad/iphone HELP!

[bellp629]

When exporting PDFs from InDesign they look great on the computere but there is a HUGE color shift on the Ipad/Iphone. The main color is a rich purple which turns into neon blue on the iphone/Ipad.

Through research I have found that iphones/ipads show RGB color. I have tried ALL RGB settings in InDesign and the best that I get is a dark blue.

Has anyone been able to solve this???

HELP!

Export the PDF - choose FORMAT: Adobe PDF (Interactive) instead of (Print)

The reason interactive produces a better result is it forces all color into sRGB. You can still export a print PDF and get the same result by setting the color conversion destination to sRGB.

InDesign CMYK looks neon when viewing exported PDF on iPhone or iPad. If this is for viewing or proofing only:

Thanks for posting this solution—it may have not existed when this thread was started, and when sending proofs, or anything not being printed, I feel this is the easiest way to do it with confidence that colors will be somewhat accurate.

iOS 9.3 finally adds colour profile support. CMYK PDF's now render correctly! No more exporting as RGB PDF's for iOS display!

Here a more ambivalent look at that feature:

I  use iPhone7 and also faced the same problem while using this adobe reader after doing many things the problem I cant fix it. But I noticed after few months later when I  do factory reset without userId and password my mobile  due to some reason after that the problem is fixed.
