When changing the CMYK to RGB colours, why is the colour different?
Basic color management, CMYK is a smaller gamut than RGB.
David,
Thanks for your reply.
However - what we don't understand here is that we have been using previous versions of Corel 2007 for graphics etc in our designs and we don't understand now with the new version of Corel 2021 why when the CMYK to RGB ends up in complete different colours to the original artwork

Short answer: RGB has 16.8 million colors, CMYK uses only about 64,000. That explains why you will lose some colors, especially bright colors. By the way, depending on the color profile, this loss may be greater or less, it may even go unnoticed. For example, using "Perceptual" rendering you will notice that the change is less abrupt.
Hi,
We have CorelDraw constantly giving us this messange when we go to print out our Name Badge orders on our card printer RTP9660

Can someone advise why or where we can do the directions as we have tried with no success.
this message is relative to your printer, because it doesn't have Postscript language for a good color correction. Btw most of the injet printers works better if you send files on RGB
