Trying to create a new shade but I can't save it with values (RGB) I want.

Hi and thanks for your help.

I have a client who has a very precise idea of the colors he wanted for his logo:

RGB: 137/150/150 (HEX 899696)

RGB: 212/09/04 (HEX 09D404)

I developed the logo, everyone is happy and trying to get the colors EXACTLY right. Every time I have create a new shade and apply it in Illustrator, green returns to a different RGB and HEXADECIMAL. Some random number and the green. I checked tones and Web save RGB and overall and still, nothing.

I have worked with since CS2 CS and now uses CS6 via creative cloud. It's my first time with a Mac for design, and I am really frustrated. I've never had this problem before.


Any advice is most appreciated. Thank you.

I really need to rethink these colors. How can I enter my RBG values and keep em!

I created your question in the screenshots of photoshop, but your information raises more questions for what you let out as 1) what profile you have your Illustrator work RGB value (must be srgb if you set the hex colors), and 2) at what time your hex colors change (in the sample itself, in the object or in the document being saved (.jpg)?

the short answer is not all hex colors can "fit" exactly within the color space sRGB (or is it the .jpg format) - try record in .png format and by checking the values in photoshop (apply the source sRGB profile when you open) - try google colors hexagonal change vs .png .jpg (this was here before)

My screenshots show that I put the hex values that correspond to your RGB numbers (in .psd) - but when I save for web (.jpg) offset figures slightly - if you use .jpg only as a destination format, you should choose a hexadecimal color that exactly matches this format
