Keynote Color Space Mismatch?
hello --
i am ecountering this strange keynote behavior. when i place a png file either as a background to a slide, or simply drang and drop it into keynote the rgb values of the image are changed. this happens despite the file having srgb embedded as a profile. this leads to somewhat inconsistent colors between my deliverables.
in keynote, when i use the sampler of the color palette i can tell that it uses "device rgb" upon placing the image. as an example:
the color (srgb) 191/189/174 gets converted to (device rgb) 203/200/188
does anyone understand what is happening here or how i can ensure that the image gets placed/imported properly?
any leads are greatly appreciated.
thank you in advance.

as a small addition as i keep playing around with this issue. i just discovered that a plain copy & paste from photoshop straight into keynote seems to preserve the rgb values. this is very strange. see image for an example. left one is dragged into keynote, right one is the correct color just pasted into keynote.
