Illustrator Export CMYK Problem

Hello, I am using Illustrator Export and after much testing it’s functioning exactly how I want except for one major issue. The illustrator files being created are CMYK, I need RGB.

I know I can simply make this change in Illustrator, create an action to do multiple files, but I would rather export from C4D RGB. Is this possible? Am I missing something obvious?

Any help would be appreciated.

Thank you in advance!

Hi Devoted,

Please have a look here:

I personally would stay in Adobe for that, if one thing is certain, that Adobe gives you the best options to go from CMYK to RGB. Use as target AdobeRGB, avoid the sRGB (as much as possible anyway), as it will create perhaps otherwise a lot of loss in your colors. I have overlaid a CMYK and a sRGB Gamut to showcase where they do not overlap. One has to either squeeze all colors or clip some, perhaps compress the borders, not even to talk about the black point settings, etc.

All the best

You’re very welcome, Devoted, and I guess the resulting quality from your action script will be worth it.

Enjoy your weekend.
