colors with illustrator

[bigcheez]

Recently we have been working with a print customer who is really picky when it comes to the colors. When we take media created in illustrator into flash it appears to use different colors than the colors applied in illustrator. Couldn't find anything in the documentation, or any kind of output color control in illustrator. Any ideas?

Best to get the rgb values before you import and then fix them in the flash file. They do tend to change a bit. You could just fill them once you import them into flash. thats what I do. Regards, Bill

Just a note, Anyone who uses Corel, They now have a plugin to export directly into swf. But The file size is typicaly 7k larger. So save them out as ai's and import still.

default color settings for illustrator are in cymk mode. if youve ever converted an image in photoshop from cymk to rgb, youd notice that the colors do change. cymk is used for printing and rgb is for computer displayed artwork.
