Hello,

I just finish my resume in Indesign and export it to a PDF file... the resume has CYAN 100% color in some elements. When I open the PDF in the iPhone the cyan color is not correct. It's showing another color.. like a light blue.

Here is an example..

What could be doing this?... how can I fix this?

PD.. it's doing the same thing in the iPad

Thanks
 
Just a thought, but are you exporting the PDF in CMYK color mode? Are you exporting it with a specified color profile?

The default export to PDF, I presume, would convert it to RGB, and would therefore be slightly changing the color appearances as well.

Might want to play around with the PDF color option settings to get it to look right.

You are right... now I change the color profile to sRGB IEC61966-2.1 and it's showing the correct color.

Thanks!!!
