Description Alberto Salvia Novella 2025-05-14 14:41:42 UTC 
Description:
Images are displayed without taking into account the color space in their metadata.

Hence the colors are wrong.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Insert an image into a document. Preferably one with their color space tagged in its metadata, as the attached one.

2. Open the same image on a color managed application, like Firefox with "gfx.color_management.mode = 1" (aka always manage color).

Actual Results:
Colors are different

Expected Results:
Colors to be the same


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: Yes

Additional Info:
If there is no color space tagged on the metadata, the default shall be to assume sRGB.

I see the same color when opening the PNG and the document containing the PNG. See my screenshot.
Comment 5 Alberto Salvia Novella 2025-05-15 12:20:21 UTC 
It seems that this happens when the screen is color calibrated.

I will bisect this bug first.
