    Default Reload won't separate

    I import an SVG and it separates into four colors. I'm trying to save it as a PNG with separate colors, but no setting seems to do this

    Some things I've tried:

    True color + Alpha
    Transparent
    ------------------
    True color + Alpha
    Interlaced
    ------------------
    True color + Alpha
    Interlaced
    Transparent
    ------------------
    True color + Alpha
    Interlaced
    Export each layer to a file of its own
    ------------------
    True color + Alpha
    Export each layer to a file of its own
    ------------------
    ETC

    I've pretty much tried every setting there is, but no matter what I do when I save it and reload it it
    won't separate into the four colors that are there when I load in as an SVG.


    Almost ready to head over to the Aokigahara forest.

    Can you save and export each color individually?

    Never give up. You will never fail, but you may find a lot of ways that don't work.

    I don't think there is a batch setting to do this but I could be wrong.

    does it work if you make a bitmap copy with alpha of each layer and export them ?

    If you put each color on a new layer, then you can export PNG > Options > Export each layer to new file

    Depending on the pixel size of the image, you can use Window > Show Printer Colors > Show Cyan (make screenshot and put on Cyan layer, and repeat this for the other three colors. And then export PNG each layer a new file.

    But the image has to be 96dpi (1:1)
