I’m wondering if any of you have noticed that when you create a color palette for a font (CPAL/COLOR), the colors in the generated font look paler than in the original. Why does this happen? Any workarounds?
There is a small issue with color profiles. The app uses Apples color profile internally, but the fonts interpret it as sRGB. We are working on a fix.
For now: The color values in the .glyphs file should be written out 1:1. So you can convert them into sRGB and put those numbers in the .glyphs file.
Sorry, what do you mean by “The color values in the .glyphs file should be written out 1:1”. I am inputting hexadecimal values taken from my illustrators’s test palettes.
You need to make sure that illustrator is in sRGB mode.
