PDF changes color in PowerPoint

Hi all,
I created an image (used color transparency for some parts) in Illustrator CC 2014. I saved the image as a pdf. and then inserted it in my PowerPoint presentation. Once I save the powerpoint and reopen it, pdf images that I inserted have a black background. Please, let me know how to deal with this issue. Thank you in advance!!!

Hi katya2385,
Are you still facing this issue?
As you said once you convert the pdf to image and then import that image to PowerPoint presentation the color of the image changes next time you open.
You may try to check the file which you have converted to image without looking that in powerpoint check that file individually.
Regards,
Ajlan Huda.

Export to PDF changes colors to a darker shade

I have an annoying problem with both Keynote and Pages: when exporting to PDF, the colors become darker than they appear on screen and on the printer.
I've tried various things to improve the situation, but to no avail:
1. tried using different color profiles for the colors;
2. tried printing to PDF (instead of exporting).
The problem seems to arise from the fact that I have a bitmap image on the page. Before I put the bitmap image on, the export is perfectly fine. Then when I add the bitmap and export again, the colors are wrong.
I've uploaded the Pages files and the PDF exports here:

I'm not at my Mac right now, so I cannot check, but I'm surprised you get the rectangle around the shadow. I thought that was fixed. Someone else may have the shadow story clearer.
Bug reports are made at http://developer.apple.com/bugreporter/ , but it may be enough if you just enter the observation on the Pages feedback page at http://www.apple.com/feedback/pages.html .
You also have the option to play with your own color profiles in ColorSync Utility. It is not straightforward, but it is interesting to see what flexibility MacOS X gives us.
CS2 is Adobe Creative Suite. It includes Illustrator, Indesign, Photoshop and so on. It is much better at following industry standards than Pages, but it is not as easy to use. And it costs more than ten times as much.

Will saving an eps file as a pdf change color output? Digital printing.

Hello, I recently sent in a reprint order of a client's package label file, and the color output is quite different. The first times I ordered these labels, I sent in an eps file. At the printer's request, I submitted the file as a pdf this time. I can't see any differences bewteen the eps and pdf files. They're both RGB, the color values are sttill the same in the file. Should the file type change result in such a different output? Thanks for any advice...

Switching from a RGB color mode to CMYK gives the same colors on Screen? Since the CMYK is a subset of the colors available in RGB this is not usually the case.

Word to pdf changes colors

All three of my coworkers and I have a problem with our colors when we save a Word document as a PDF. The greens come out hatched or yellow, as with other colors. We have all recently been upgraded to Windows 7, but I don't know if that's the reason behind it. Any help is appreciated. It wastes a lot of time trying to find a color that will not change when we save. Thanks

I am using Word 2007 to create the document, and am printing to Adobe Acrobat 9. My default settings are set at standard (Converts all colors to RGB), and I cannot put Acrobat PDF as my default printer because I do need the other actual printer as the default (I print much more often than I print to pdf).
Once I create the doc in Word, I go to file--print--select Adobe PDF as the printer (Adobe PDF Converter) and then choose where to save it. When the new pdf comes up, the colors are messed up.

Export to PDF changes colors

I have a longstanding problem that I hoped would have been fixed but has not. I had this in prior versions of Keynote and in prior OS's. I am now using Leopard and Keynote in iWork 08. All software is latest version.
I use a bright green font and various other bright colors in keynote. When I export to PDF many (not all) of the colors are noticeably muted and washed out. It is particularly noticeable in the bright green (called "spring" in the crayon pallete in keynote). Other colors change tint substantially.
The overall effect is to go from a vibrant presentation to something that looks very dull. I am referring here to colors as they appear on the screen (printing is a whole other issue). If I put the PDF version next to the keynote version on my large Apple LCD display, they look completely different.
This is not just a subtle effect. It is very noticeable color change.
Today I gave a presentation using Acrobat Connect and noticed the screen capture seemed to also have a color problem, and the presentation appeared on the remote screen with the same color changes as if it had been turned into PDF.
Presumably there is something very different about the way Apple and Adobe handle colors. Is there some setting I need to adjust or is this a bug? It seems like a pretty big issue to me.
Any help greatly appreciated.

As pdfs are normaly calibrated for printig, they mostly use CMYK. CMYK cannot show all colors you monitor can do, especially deep greens or blues. But they look the same when printed, so if you change the calibration of the pdf to some RGB profile, it may look like in keynote, but not anymore the same when printed.
Good theory, but I think it is wrong. When Mac OS X produced PDF files, it keeps the colour space of the original pictures. CMYK stays CMYK and RGB stays RGB. (You can see this using preflight in Adobe Acrobat, if you have that application.) The important thing is that the file, regardless of colour space, should have a good colour profile, and Mac OS X does it best to do that too.
But apart from that, I have no idea what could be wrong in the case described above.

JPEG, PNG, TGA, PDF changes hex color from PSD

I work for a company where the CEO is very into brand colors. He has the hex values of all the branded colors memorized. One of the branded colors is blue ( hex: 0039a6 ). Obviously, if he looks at my psd and samples a the color, it will display 0039a6.
However, whenever I save it out as a: jpg, tga, png, or pdf, the color's hex value will change to 1f419b. If he samples from one of those files, crisis! Wrong branded color!
I've made 2 layers and filled with with both colors and as far as I can tell, they are exactly the same to the eye, even if they're overlapping. So I just want to know why this happens so I can explain myself if he ever runs over to my desk.
Thanks!

Oh right, this is happening with Photoshop and Illustrator, which is why is didn't post on an individual programs forums. I forgot to add that to my previous post. Do you recommend that I post in both the Photoshop and Illustrator sections?
Edit: I did more tests. If I use the branded color 0039a6 in Illustrator and save it out as a png, tga, jpeg, pdf, and I then open one of those exported files in Photoshop, the hex value has changed.
If I use the branded color in Photoshop, exporting a png keeps the color as the correct hex value. JPG doesn't, which makes sense due to compression. So now the question is, why are the files I'm exporting from Illustrator and opening in Photoshop showing different hex values. You would assume that the pngs should be okay from both Photoshop and Illustrator?

Followed hyperlinks in PowerPoint 07 WON'T change color

I have created a jeopardy-style game in PPT and the hyperlinks aren't cooperating. When I click on one of the options, it takes me to the appropriate slide, but when I return to the main slide the link I previously clicked did NOT change color.
This makes it difficult for users to remember which options have already been used. I have tried creating custom colors via Themes but that didn't work. Help!

I found a work-around for this using custom animation. First, I setup boxes (for game squares) in my Jeopardy game as hyperlinks (i.e., entire box/square is a hyperlink). However, I did not enter any text in the "hyperlink" boxes.
Instead, I placed a regular textbox in the middle of the hyperlink box. In the textbox, I typed in my dollar amounts (in white font). I then setup a custom animation to turn the text in the textbox to blue (the background color of the game board).
In the "Timing" option for the animation, I setup the Trigger as "On click of" and then selected the "hyperlink" box.
Now, when any area inside the "hyperlink" box is clicked, it triggers the color change animation. This gets around the bug that doesn't change visited hyperlinks in PowerPoint. Hope this helps!

I know there should be some way to change the colors of just specific areas of text like this. It should be as simple as putting a color code at the start and end of the tag like
<div><color="#FF0000">This text should be RED</color></div>
I tried that and it came up with the error "Invalid Markup, This is not the correct format for an HTML tag."
I am about 99% certain you can change colors of specific div tags using color codes without giving them an Id and making a css rule for them, I just don't know how. This is a simple question and it should be a simple answer.
Correct:
<div style="color: #ff0000;">This text should be RED</div>

How to create a radio button that changes colors

I'm using Acrobat X and ID CS5 on Mac OS X.
A couple of years ago someone on the forums explained to me how to create a button that changes color with each click. You can view a sample PDF at https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/52882455/colorcycle.pdf. They gave me the document JS and showed me how to set the properties of the button. I've integrated the button into a particular series of PDF forms and it's worked out very well.
Now I would like to do the same thing, but using a circle instead of a square. Can anyone tell me the best way to do this? Can I somehow set a radio button to cycle through colors in the same way? I design my forms initially in ID CS5 and then activate and format the fields in Acrobat X. I've tried using circles instead of squares in my ID document, but when I export to an interactive PDF, they're converted to squares.
Any ideas?

I understand how to make buttons cycle through colors-- the problem I'm having is that I'm trying to figure out how to make a circular button cycle through colors. When I export my ID document to PDF, my round button maintains it's original appearance, but when I click on it to cycle through the colors, it behaves like a square (see new PDF at https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/52882455/colorcycle2.pdf).
If I use a radio button, I can get it to cycle through colors, but I don't want it to have a black dot in the middle. Is there a way to format the radio button to not show the black dot when clicked?

Change color for

I need to make links from keywords in PDF to files which is stored on harddisk.
As for now I've done following
1. Searched PDDoc with WordFinder for keyword
2. Created link annotations from keyword quads
3. Make filespecification and set it as launch action for all link annotations
Now I need to change color for recognized keyword below link annotation. Could anybody help me with any hint?
Thanks in advance.

Look at the PDEdit APIs - that's what handles content.

URL Change Color on Mouseover?

I have a flyer created in InDesign 5.5 that includes a URL identified as a hyperlink in InDesign. I exported the document as an interactive PDF and, as expected, when I mouseover the URL the I-bar changes to a hand and a box comes up with the URL in it. Is there a way, either originally in InDesign or subsequently in Acrobat, to make it so that the URL also changes color on mouseover?

Depends on how its set up. If it's just a link object then no, since such objects do not contain any text of their own and can't be used to change the underlying content of the document.
The only way this can be done is by using a form field and a MouseEnter and MouseExit script that will alter the font color of that field (and of course a MouseUp script that will launch the link).

Illustrator files changing colors

i have illustrator files compiled in a book in indesign. everything looks fine and then when i create a pdf some of the illustrator files change colors (what's supposed to be black turns green). anyone know what could be happening?

Black shouldn't turn to green. However, if you have PMS colors and you select convert to process in export you will get color shift. Does it print green? If it prints correctly, it's a preview setting in Acrobat that needs adjusting. I think if you select Show Overprint it displays correctly. I'm at home so I can't check in Acrobat Pro.

Subtitles are changing colors

Hi,
All my subtitles in IBS are the same color- blueberry.
However, in the pdf, there are some blueberry and others that are navy blue. I've tried changing styles, manually changing colors, and it some still defaults to navy blue. Why?
Many thanks.

None of the things you are asking are at all likely. The most likely problem is a corrupt monitor profile. You should have some kind of utility for calibration, but just how you go about it differs a bit depending on your version of windows. Here are the directions for windows 7:
http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows7/calibrate-your-display
Of course you'll get best results using a dedicated colorimeter, but that should let you take a look and see what's going on, at least.

Hi. Because this forum is for beginners trying to learn the basics of Photoshop, I'm moving your question to the Photoshop General Discussion forum.

Images Change Colors between monitors while the UI stays the same

Hey! Im having an issue where photoshop changes the colors when I move the window between my monitors, seen here: http://sta.sh/04y5s60vf3j This isnt due to the monitors themselves being different, it actually changes after a few seconds of moving it inbetween the monitors. The left one has been callibrated with a spyder 3 elite which I no longer have access to. I applied the file with windows color management instead of the spyder utility. The second one is new, and it is not callibrated by anything, but instead was done by hand with the built in brightness/contrast/custom RGB settings. Both of them are very close to eachother, enough so for my tastes. but when photoshop changes what the image looks like, it's causing problems. Interestingly enough, when I disable callibration for the monitor on the left, the image does not change colors between monitors, but instead always appears as it does on the right. but then they don't match up and the whole screen looked washed out because it's uncallibrated, so that doesnt do me any good. Another interesting thing to point out, is when this image is saved as a .JPG, and viewed with firefox the image appears exactly like the monitor on the LEFT (which is my main monitor) despite the left monitor being the one that is force changed. does anyone have any suggestions? It also appears that windows photoviewer is behaving the same way, though firefox does not. Meaning when I open an image in all 3 on the left monitor, they look the same, but when opened on the right monitor, windows photo viewer and photoshop both display the image as brighter and redder than firefox does. This is frustrating, because it seems photoshop is changing the image with my callibration on my left monitor to match what it looks like on the web, which it does. but it doesn't do this for the right monitor, or when the left is uncallibrated. Another issue I can see with this is even if the UI is the same shade of gray, the images are different between the monitors because of this change. Does anyone have any suggestions?

Alright! So I reread through all this, poked at some things on the internet, and I'm going to attempt to summarize what would be a good solution for all this (And it seems, it still won't be perfect, but to get myself into the best environment I can for not messing with images for an hour trying to make them look nice before I post them to the web. I painted something yesterday on the cintiq, popped it over to my laptop screen and it just looked washed out and terrible.)
1. Get a X-rite EODIS3 i1 Display Pro, Callibrate laptop and cintiq. I do have the money to drop on something like this, especially if it's a time saver.
     Things I'm not sure about:
          a. There was a ton of complaints about the software not working when I checked reviews, but also a ton that said everything was great. most of them were mac users though.
          b. I'm not sure if problems would still be posed, even while calibrated, by me having a wide gamut monitor.
          c. I'm a terrible excuse for a human being and I think the colors showing up brighter on the wide gamut screen is pretty (I should just make my images this bright on a normal screen and there won't be any issues. >.>)
2. Set Firefox to color manage (easy enough)
3. Change my photoshop working space to sRGB (since they'll have been calibrated at this point)
3. Accept the fact that most of the people who look at my work will be doing so on a monitor that is almost certainly uncalibrated, and I can't control what they will see on my screen, but I CAN control if the colors are -actually- what I want them to be on any properly calibrated device. which is probably the best way to go anyways.
4. Make paintings, have fun.
Now, you two have been going on about all sorts of interesting things in here, and it seems that calibration issue run much much deeper than I ever thought. Do either of you have recommendations for how I should tweak this list of things to do or other things I can/ should do? I'm not currently a working professional, but if I have anything to say about it, I will be within a few years (I'm going to school for illustration and studying concept design on my own time) so it'd be useful for me to get into good habits now.
