Paintshop Pro displaying wrong colours in jpg file

[Lennin]

Hello,

does anyone know why when i save an adobe pdf file as a jpg in acrobat, and then open it in Jasc Paintshop Pro (ver 7.0) the colours appear different - i.e. yellow becomes blue, red becomes green, etc...

I'm running Windows XP Professional.

Thanks in advance!!

Leon

Lennin,

You're in the wrong forum for this question. A more appropriate forum would be either the Jasc Software: Paint Shop Pro forum (forum446 ) or the Adobe: Acrobat forum (forum223 ). The Jasc Software: Paint Shop Pro seems a bit sleepy, so I'd suggest trying the Adobe: Acrobat forum first.

Good luck,
-Ron

I don't know much about PSP, but are you possibly saving as a CMYK file and maybe PSP doesn't support CMYK? That is the only thing that comes to mind as a possible cause.

When in doubt, deny all terms and defnitions.

Try opening it in some other applications - IE for example. You need to find out whether PSP is reading it wrong or Acrobat is saving it wrong, then post in the appropriate forum.

Guys

Cheers guys - i couldnt find the PSP forum the other day. Will try the post there now. As for the question - i think its PSP that reading it wrong as MS Paint opens the file with the correct colours.

Cheers

You need to change the colourspace to RGB.

In Photoshop 7.x, use:

Image -> Mode -> RGB Color

Theen "Save for web" to avoid all the extra rubbish that Photoshop adds into JPEG files.

Hope this helps,
