Color Change when converting to PDF (with Print to PDF)

Anonymous

I have an Issue that a logo is changing color when i converting to PDF. It´s as if one of the color is just made white.

I have tried rebuilding and recoloring the logo.

Maybe i should rebuild it as one-layer witherout any overlay?

Hi,

 

turn your modelspace background in AutoCAD to white, so you can really compare these 2 screenshots.

 

Transparent objects in front of black look different to the same objects with white background (independent of AutoCAD).

Grey values are inverted when having black/dark or white/light background ... so not easy to compare.

It worked by remaking the logo without any overlays. I just used paint the get the RGB code for the area where the white is partly transparent.

Hi,

>> white is partly transparent

Having an RGB value and then making something transparent means the background color influences the result, this is why I asked to switch your AutoCAD to white background, otherwise you could never compare these screenshots.
