I work for a company where the CEO is very into brand colors. He has the hex values of all the branded colors memorized. One of the branded colors is blue ( hex: 0039a6 ). Obviously, if he looks at my psd and samples a the color, it will display 0039a6.
However, whenever I save it out as a: jpg, tga, png, or pdf, the color's hex value will change to 1f419b. If he samples from one of those files, crisis! Wrong branded color!
I've made 2 layers and filled with with both colors and as far as I can tell, they are exactly the same to the eye, even if they're overlapping. So I just want to know why this happens so I can explain myself if he ever runs over to my desk.
Thanks!
