Question How to import without messing up the colours

[WerbeAlex]

Basically what the title says, sometimes almost always you get a pdf to print, but need to finetune stuff, add OPOS marks etc. So you import it into Corel, do what has to be done, export for printing and what you print looks awful, because the colours are completely off. I believe it is when I import RGB files (default setting in corel is CMYK), but not 100% sure.
What would be the correct order of operation (preset and export RGB? Change to CMYK?) to preserve the intended look? Or can anyone think of another possible problem?

Go to Tools/Color Management/Defaults tab

Look at your color management profile and make sure it's not set up whacky. Then look at what it does with opening and importing/exporting files and whether it's converting the color profiles or keeping embedded color profiles.
