Re: Oversaturated, wrong colours in PDF generated with Reportlab

Thanks Robin!
I tried with images in color space RGB and two different colour profiles:
- sRGB (the most diffused colour space for non-printed content) images are oversaturated by Reportlab
- AdobeRGB1998 images are treated fine
I'm wondering if there's anything I can do to solve this.
