Hello,
I'm using corel draw x5 and my monitor shows white as very light yellow, the only way to stop this is to change the color conversion settings to none which then turns all the colours to RGB which don't relflect the colour that would be printed.
My monitor is a Dell U2410 has anyone had this problem before?
This could be because your monitor is assigned a bad color profile. Sometimes, computer manufacturer ships color profile that are not that accurate and it is better not to use it. Normally however, CorelDRAW should detect that and issue a warning allowing you to override it.
I'd be interested in taking a look at this color profile to see if there is something we can improve. Locate the color management setting on your OS and see if you can find what profile is associated with you monitor and if you can find the actual file. Then you can forward it to me.
Do not use the 'none' color engine : that pretty much turns off the entire color management system which is why the CMYK color dont look dull on your monitor.
Also, if you want to see how your colors will look like once printed : be sure to use color proofing. Otherwise, what you see on screen is not an accurate representation of what it will look like once printed.
Thanks for your advice i've download a new color profile form

for my monitor and added it in my monitor color management section under color profile. I hope this advice can help other people with the same problem.
Thanks

If you had the dialog before and want to trigger it again, then you need to use F8 when launching the app to clear the original decision.
You can also view/edit the mapping through the registry in the following key :
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Corel\CorelDRAW\15.0\Draw\Application Preferences\ColorProfileMonitorMapping]
for example :
"My HPLP2065 D65 G2.2 A87.26 98024571cae317"="My HPLP2065 (D65 G2.2 A87.26)"
"HP LP2065 LCD Monitor b69581001c5b984"="HP LP2065 LCD Monitor"
"My HPLP2065 D65 G2.2 A186.05 54e0869e1cae541"="My HPLP2065 (D65 G2.2 A186.05)"

I just want to mention that F8 is not specific to this dialog : it clears all your customization. It frequently helps to solve issues that started occurring all of a sudden that were not occurring before.

of course i know that it clears customization.
but better to do customization again and working with white colors, then working and even PRINTING (!) with light yellow color.
else one time thanks to you for that solution with F8 :))))
