Title: Weird colors for generated jpeg from rgb eps files
Post by: DiscreetDuck on June 06, 2009, 06:16
Hello,
I submit eps 8 files from illustrator in rgb (sRGB) to Bigstock. The server generates jpeg with weird colors, as if it had been converted into cmyk.
This issue has already been reported but never found a solution.
Is there someone out there who can submit rgb eps files to Bigstock without loss of the colors ? I know a lot of illustrators work natively in cmyk format, considering the printing side, and may not have this problem.
The same issue happens at canstock, but only yaymicro generates no weird jpeg from eps.
I think that the problem comes form the server side, but I don't know if something can be done from illustrator side.
Or maybe the only solution is to submit rasterised jpg to these sites.
Could you tell me what you know about all that, thank you !

Do they only except rgb? It may be a silly question but why not convert then to cymk in illustrator before you submit them?

In fact, I like the rgb space of colors, cmyk is more restrictive, but more compatible for traditional press...
Btw, thank you for participating here ;)
