How to fix losing color when exporting as PNG?

Hello dear community! Can you answer how I can fix it?


I see the differences between my krita viewport and png picture

Hi

You have to provide more information, but usually it’s related to color space.

Which colorspace & colorprofile did you use in krita?
Which option did you use when exporting as PNG format?
Which tool do you use to check exported document (does tools is able to manage colorspace other than sRGB?)

Thank you for answer!

I’m not sure where this setting, but my Image settings looks like this

I just compare what I see by my eyes :slight_smile: I don’t have a special program for that

Hi

For monitor color profile, you should use the sRGB-elle-V2-sgrbtrc.icc profile and use a dedicated profile for each monitor at OS level (don’t know it’s possible on OSX but probably yes)

Concerning your document, I don’t have the sRGB IEC61966-2.1 color profile on my computer.

Information we need are options when you save your document as PNG:

Also if you can make a PNG document similar to current one for which you have problem, and share it, it could be useful.

Yes, I saw the difference too.
What i mean is, you open the PNG file in an another software than Krita and see the difference.
Is this software is able to manage color profile properly?
If you open document in firefox or safari, do you still see a color difference?

Also it seems you want to use Krita to generate game tiles or game textures; for that I recommend you to use sRGB-elle-V2-sgrbtrc.icc instead because I’m not sure you really want to manage color profile when loading tiles & textures in the game :wink:

I found the solution! It’s your advice from another topic Exported Image is lighter than Krita Image - #16 by Grum999

I’ve just turned on “soft proofing” and it looks exactly the same

Thank you for your help.
Also I’ve changed color profile as you said
