    Hello everyone! 

    I’ve recently started using Inkscape, and I’m facing an issue when importing SVG files. The colors appear different from what I originally designed in another program. I was expecting the exact same colors, but they seem slightly off after importing.

    Here’s what I’ve tried so far:

    • Checked the color profiles in both software.
    • Looked into the "Document Properties" settings.
    • Tried exporting and re-importing the file in different formats.

    I’m using Windows 10 (64-bit) with Inkscape 1.2, freshly installed from the official website (.exe installer). My SVG files were originally created in Adobe Illustrator before being imported into Inkscape.

    Has anyone faced a similar issue? Are there specific color settings I should check to ensure accurate color display? Any advice would be really helpful!

    Thanks in advance! 😊

    Setting up Inkscape for CMS is not exactly straightforward. This tutorial is still helpful: https://librearts.org/2011/09/how-to-get-cmyk-colors-from-inkscape-to-scribus/
