When you Exported the PDF was the Destination and Output Intent set to Document CMYK–US Sheetfed Coated? Is your InDesign document’s assigned profile is US Sheetfed Coated? Yes, and yes. you only need Overprint Preview turned on—don’t also turn on Proof Colors Not getting any difference that compares to what I was seeing in Acrobat anyway. the problem would have to be with the Monitor Profile Why would the monitor profile matter when I'm seeing both things on the same monitor? Also, I use a Spyder to calibrate monthly. ... View more

So funny, yesterday after I "fixed" the problem I couldn't get it to show up again, but today (after shutting my computer down last night) the problem is back. Here's what it looks like! InDesign file on left, with Overprint Preview and Proof Colors turned on. AcrobatPro on right. FWIW, if I open the image of the woman in Photoshop, it matches InDesign but not Acrobat. ... View more

I haven't checked yet on my MacBook screen; I have an HP Z27 external monitor and I was using it for this test yesterday. When I changed from GPU to CPU and back again, I didn't see any difference. I will definitely look to see if I get a difference on my MacBook screen, though! For the record, I have a Apple M2 Max with 12‑core CPU, 38‑core GPU, 16‑core Neural Engine, 64GB unified memory, 14-inch Liquid Retina XDR display. I'm running macOS 13.4, InDesign 18.5 and Acrobat Pro 2023.003.20269.  ... View more

I just had the weirdest thing happen, as I was trying to solve this same problem. I tried all kinds of different ways to output my PDF and kept getting a mismatch in the color. I tried all kinds of different color settings in all my programs (InDesign, Photoshop, and Acrobat) and kept getting a mismatch. Finally I tried looking at Acrobat's Preferences. Under Page Display, I tried changing the transparency color blending space from RGB to CMYK, no change. I then tried changing the Overprint Preview to Always, no change. Then I tried, on a lark, changing the Smooth Text from For Laptop/LCD Screens to None. BINGO! Now, here's the weirdest thing: when I tried to change it back, the color did not go back to being wrong. It seems it's not a setting problem, it's a bug. Somehow I triggered it to display my colors correctly. Hopefully others can try this and see if it works for them. If Adobe has a bug reporting page, I'll post this there. ... View more
