Please supply your own findings, and I'll report this as a bug if more of you are able to reproduce similar behavior.One under-the-radar feature that comes with iOS 15 and iPadOS 15 is found in the Files app. Either way it looks unnecessary to go via ICCBasedCMYK when nothing in my document is using CMYK. This looks like some sort of bug, either with Adobe Acrobat or with ArcGis. The pdf also looks correct on iOS v10.0.1 with Adobe Acrobat Reader v16.10.11 and in iBooks.

More testing have revealed that when viewing the pdf in Google Chrome v 53.0 and Internet Explorer v11.321 the colors look correct. When previewing with the Object Inspector I get the following by clicking on the text and symbol. * Setting Simulation profile to sRGB IEC61966-2.1 - both symbol and text becomes lighter RGB(0,0,255) Web Coated (SWOP) v2 - both symbol and text becomes darker RGB (53,82,165) When using the tool Advanced -> Print Production -> Output Preview in Acrobat. Here are som new findings since the original post. I'm using ArcGis Pro 1.3 and Adobe Arobat Pro Extended v9.3.1 I have exported without any map in the background, with raster and with vector maps - the problem still persists. Interestingly enough, even though the vector map was symbolized with a lot of CMYK colors, when i changed inland waters to RGB(0,0,255) it rendered perfectly in the export - but my blue dot did not. As mentioned in the initial post, I have only experienced this problem with PDF export. I have read the page on Exporting Maps without finding a solution. Please give a shout if you are able to reproduce the error and if you find a solution. I've only seen this issue on PDF export, however, I've not done extensive tesitng with the other formats. The change from (0,0,255) to (53,82,165) is very similar to the one seen when converting an image from sRGB to the FOGRA39 (CMYK) color profile. To determine the colors above, I pasted a screenshot of Adobe Acrobat into Photoshop and read the RGB. Try to determine if the color is the same on the label and the symbol.

Label the point feature and choose the same color as you used on the symbol fill Let the symbol be the default filled circle.įill it with a bright color - e.g. Try for yourself and see if you also have this issue.Ĭreate a new map with a Basemap of your choice.Ĭreate a file geodatabase with a few points. So far I've only seen the color change on vector symbols, not their labels, and not on the underlying raster. It is very similar to what you'd expect if screwing up the color management in a photo project. When I export a map or a layout to PDF, the color of symbols gets duller. The issue was first experienced in an extensive project but now I'm able to reproduce it at will with even the simplest design.

I'm experiencing a problem with the colors when exporting to PDF.
