CorelDRAW Graphics Suite 12 :: Pantone Coated Palette - No White
Sep 7, 2011In my Pantone Coated has no WHITE in it or do any of the other pantone groups. RGB and others do. Is there a way to get white on there.

Jul 19, 2007My CMYK palette is the same hue as my RGB palette right now. I guess you know the difference. RGB looks bright and high in contrast like the ones used in Microsoft word. And the cmyk is, not the bright... Anyway, so the problem is...its the same color on my monitor. Its looks all RGB. On my other PC-2, its the other way around. My RGB palette looks like CMYK. Its not much of a problem with my PC-2 because i rarely use it for photo editing. Its just use for our cutting machine, the other one, my PC-1..
What's going on because it where i do most of my designs. And the color is a major factor there because most of our clients usually send their design to email and they have specific color. So, im having trouble doing designs. Is there a problem with my monitor? I tried editing my files on PC-2 but if i transfer it to PC-1 the color is different again... I cant get the exact (almost) color i want. The adobe gamma isn't do much either nor the monitor adjustment. Do i need to get a professional calibrator for all my PCs or are there downloadable calibrator on the internet? I was about to try the one about CorelDraw 12 Color Management guide but im still not sure about it. I have to read the infos first.
Here's from my PC-1. To the left is the CMYK and on the right is the RGB
Now here is from my PC-2. Left is CMYK and right is RGB.
When viewed from my PC-2..this one looks all CMYK (and dull)
CorelDRAW Graphics Suite X4 :: RGB Color Palette Is A Copy Of CMYK
Jan 23, 2013Something strange happened today when I was working on a cdr project. I think I have by mistake somehow managed to completely delete the original rgb palette, copied the cmyk palette and saved it as "rgb" palette. As a result if I try to change the color palette, the rgb and the cmyk options are exactly the same palettes.
This happened whilst I was working on a cdr drawing. Somehow I managed to press a wrong key combination whilst trying to save (probably CTRL-something and then CTRL-S immediately after) and noticed that the colors on my drawing changed. I tried to undo, but nothing happened.
After some checking I realized that the original rgb color palette has been replaced with a copy of cmyk. If I now try to switch color palettes, the cmyk and the rgb are exactly the same palettes regardless of which cdr project I open (new or saved).
This is how I tried to fix the issue:
I tried F8 during startup - no change
I tried with the repair option of the installation cd - no change
I tried a removal and a new installation of the Suite - no change.
Could be worth a try: Maybe someone could send me a copy of their rgbstd.cpl-file so that I could replace mine in the C:Program Files (x86)CorelCorelDRAW Graphics Suite X4LanguagesENProgramsData

CorelDRAW Graphics Suite X4 :: Displaying Incorrect CMYK Palette Colors?
Dec 20, 2011I used to have X4 installed on XP and it worked fine. Recently I re-install the program onto my new Win7 PC. It was working fine at first but one day my CMYK palette turn into some weird colors (much brighter than the original one)
I tried to hold F8 to launch X4 to turn it back to dafault settings but no go. I tried uninstall and reinstall and it's the same. Finally I downloaded the latest X5 Free trial and the color palettes are displaying correctly! (So i figure it's not my monitor's problem nor some Windows setting.)

CorelDRAW X5 :: Printing With CMYK (Win 7 / 32)

Refilling areas with colors in RGB works, but I don´t want to live with this workaround. Nearly all my Corel graphics are made using CMYK.

CorelDRAW Graphics Suite X6 :: Color Management Printing RGB / CMYK And Separations
Nov 11, 2012This discussion is on using RGB file creation techniques to output to ink jet devices. I posted the comments below the link because color management off always pops up in the conversation as it turns to non-postscript devices so I wanted to circumvent the side bar conversation.
[URL]....
First let's get this straight, I've written it and said it about a thousand times, you cannot turn off color management.
When you select simulate color management off in the default application color management dialog, CorelDRAW simply utilizes a different set of color management settings. The rules of color management never change! The application requires guidelines on color and still must have rules that govern conversions, PERIOD.
These rules are not different, only the engines, rendering intents and profiles change. These setting in X5 and X6 can be, in some cases adjusted to simulate previous setting in versions prior to X5 that were labeled color management off, but this label in older versions (X4 and older) were deceptive in their nature, color management was never turned off, just set to a specific configuration.
Simulate color management off (in X5/X6) uses wide gamut cmyk simulation as the CMYK profile, it disengages the color engines (setting CorelDRAW to another internally controlled process) and sets the interface to RGB. It does not turn color management off.
These settings have many uses for industries such as laser engraving and screen printing separations and I support their continued use. Do not confuse this and use these settings for professional output using press work, ink jets or digital printers.
CorelDRAW X6 :: Setting Test Point Size?
Dec 12, 2013In X6, I select the Text tool, then in the docker or on the tool ribbon I set the point size to, say, 12 points.
But, with the Text tool still active, when I click to deposit artistic text, the point size changes to 24 and the text is deposited in that size.
Next time I select the Text tool, the point size shows as 12. But when I click to deposit artistic text, the point size changes to 24 and the text is deposited in that size.
How can I arrange for all artistic text I deposit to have a certain point size I choose.
Illustrator :: Shape Filled With 80% Black From CMYK Palette

View 2 Replies View RelatedPhotoshop :: Printing In RGB Vs CMYK
Dec 17, 2012There is a photo that I've downloaded from the internet that I'm printing and using for a class project. It was supposed to be Black & White, but when I first printed it, it looked sepia.
My teacher suggested I add a Black and White adjustment layer, but since the photo was originally in Gray scale, I needed to make it RGB to do that. Once I did, the Black & White adjustment layer made the photo Black & White.
Since I want to ultimately use the photo printed, I was thinking it would make sense to make it CMYK. When I try to make that change, Photoshop says it will discard the Black & White adjustment layer. Does that mean it will go back to looking like sepia when I print it? Does it even make a difference if I change the mode to CMYK for printing?
Also, is it better to wait and add the Black and White adjustment layer only after I've made all other adjustments as the last step before printing. Or better to do it right away so I know what I'm working with when it's Black & White?
Finally, is it best to wait and add type only once all the adjustments have been made to the photo? Does type lose any resolution when it gets merged into other layers?

Feb 13, 2008I've been using Photoshop
This is my problem:
I'm trying to publish a magazine for my community, and I'm using Photoshop CS3 to design the magazine. From what I know about printers and printing presses, they print using CMYK - therefore when I create my documents I've been using the CMYK 8 bit Color Mode. My resolution is set at the 300 pixels/inch, but I'm not sure what my Color Profie/Pixel Aspect Ratio should be.
I've also been told that most printing companies prefer PDF documents, and I don't know the right options to choose when saving my PSD's as PDF's through Photoshop.
I noticed my first problem when printing a sample at Kinko's. I had mostly black and white on my image, but I had a light yellow to dark yellow gradient as a background, and when it printed, banding appeared towards the lower part of the page where it should have been dark yellow. Basically that gradient wasn't smooth. I also noticed this on my computer when using a CMYK Color Mode, but it was less subtle (when I use RGB, the gradients are perfectly smooth from light to dark).
The sample I took to Kinko's was a:
Flattened image,
Then saved as a Photoshop PDF
As a Copy
ICC Profile: U.S. Web Coated (SWOP) v2
I just need to know the right options to start my image, and the right options to save my image as a PDF to ensure the best print quality with no sacrifce to color, gradients, etc.

Illustrator :: Match PMS Coated On Non-glossy Paper?
Aug 24, 2012I am new to offset printing, working for a church that is creating a great new graphic identity. I am working with a local graphic designer to print our newly designed items, and the first item we sent to print was a small envelope for donating money. Our designer showed us a digitally printed proof that looked very close to our colour, PMS 268 C. But, once they were offset printed, they were much lighter, close to PMS 268 UC. I was very disappointed, and realized I should have requesting coated stock, and I feel my designer is to blame for not mentioning this to me/showing me a misleading proof. Now we need to get a letter head printed, and she tells me that to match a Solid coated colour we must use glossy paper (she says glossy=coated). It is mind boggling to me that a digital printer can produce deeper, richer colours on uncoated paper than an offset printer can. I certainly don't want a glossy letterhead, but I cannot settle for such a inaccurate colour match. Is there anyway to get a match to a coated colour on uncoated or at least non-glossy paper?

CorelDRAW X4 :: RGB To CMYK Conversion
Nov 8, 2011I have finished a logo for my friend Bob in Corel Draw X4. Made it in CMYK color mode. Used 3 nuances of green color previously given to me vith RGB values. My Corel change it to CMYK. I sent the file to Bob.
He has Corel Draw X5. When he opened the file and checked the CMYK values he was surprised because they were different from mine.
I immediately found an on-line RGB to CMYK converter to check which data is more valid when i got totally different CMYK values. Now i am truly worried and don't know what to think.
Here are the values:

CorelDRAW Graphics Suite X3 :: CMYK To RGB
Apr 8, 2013COREL PAINT X3 does not do a very good job of rendering most of the CMYK images we've been getting in from our Taiwan base, and, due to language problems, we have been unable, despite decades of trying, to communicate the issues. Typically we do the original photo here, something that I used to do, but now the company uses a professional photographer - not wanting to spend big bucks on a professional camera.
His ultra-hi-res RGB photos are sent to Taiwan, where they are cleaned up and converted to CMYK using an unknown color scheme, for use in printing our mini catalog. Then I get the catalog back - in InDesign - with instructions to convert the linked CMYK photos back to RGB for use on the website, etc. The color model that they are using in Taiwan, however, typically has deep black at something like 70,65,65,70, which shows on the screen in Paint as very dark and garish, and it means that if I use the default RGB conversion, it looks that way in RGB as well, and half the picture will be solid black - 0,0,0. I.e., unusable. Oddly enough, however, it prints just fine.Now I'm pretty good with Paint, and I know how to use the tone curve to reset the values in the CMYK to usable levels, but it takes time, usually 3 or 4 tries to get it on the money, and of course in the process I'm compressing the color space by half, so there is an inevitable loss of detail.Of course, if I could get them to send us the original RGB or their cleaned up - background dropped out - version in RGB, then the problem would be eliminated, but no luck so far on that. My question is, is there any way to simplify what I'm having to do?
