Description hadouma 2016-11-29 20:08:51 UTC
I have an image file (.png, ;jpg, .tiff, it doesn't matter) of two people where the skin colors are correct. After inserting the image into a Write document, the colors are flattened.
The problem exposes itself in all OO modules, so it looks like a general OpenOffice issue.

Attachments not possible, because of extremely limited file size restrictions

Just take a picture of people in close up showing enough skin. Drag/Drop it into an OO document and compare colors to original colors. They are off

For testing I've used an own graphic.

I don't see a difference when looking at the graphic inserted into a Writer document and in a picture viewer.

Is there a graphic that is small enough that you can attach to this issue? Thanks.

As requested. Just drag this image into an OO document and the colors get dull compared to showing this image in e.g. Preview

I can see the problem also under Ubuntu 64 bit.
The photo has an embedded color profile which AOO cannot handle.
Maybe ENHANCEMENT request?

@mroe:
Thanks for testing. As it seems not to be a general issue with all graphics, I'm adjusting the summary and changing to an enhancement issue.
