Content Quality Standards: Vector Color Mismatch

Including CMYK PostScript in RGB files may cause a color shift.

If your submission was rejected with “Content does not meet our minimum quality standards” it may be because there is a significant color shift between your EPS file and the JPEG that is auto-generated.

The color shift is occurring most likely because your RGB file is set to include CMYK PostScript. To correct this issue you should make sure to uncheck the “Include CMYK PostScript in RGB Files box in your EPS Options settings:

Another possible reason for the color shift is that the vector colors are applied as CMYK and need to be converted into RGB.

To correct this issue, follow these steps:


1. Select the path(s) that need to be changed

2. Go to Edit > Edit Colors > Convert to RGB

3. Make sure to uncheck the “Include CMYK PostScript in RGB Files box in your EPS Options settings when saving.
