Hello People, just installed X7 and having a little problem with the Pantone colors. When copied and pasted a file or re-opening a file some colors are displayed in black while its actually an other Pantone color. Anyone??
Can you give an example of a specific pantone colour that demonstrates the problem? Are you sure these are actual pantone colours and not spot colours that you have created yourself? And what version of CorelDraw are the pantone colours coming from?
Note that there are several pantone libraries, so you need to be clear which library (pantone, pantone+ etc) you are using in each version.
I'm using Pantone solid coated colors, maybe this screenshot will help?
I'm just used to do so (since version 11), never had any problems with it.
Gonna try your advice first thing tomorrow!
Thank you!
Nope, no succes with the new color palette... never had this problem before...
Got it! it happens when I use the Document Palette to fill stuff, when I use the normal Pantone or HKS etc. palettes its OK!
Now I can sleep again...
Anyway, thanks for your input guys!
Hi There,
I have reviewed your supplied CDR without any luck of reproducing the issue manually.
Could you please walk me through the exact steps that you are able to recreate the issue starting with File> New. Having this information will help us to ensure we are looking at the same problem.
Regards
Dawn
Hi Dawn, I'm trying to recreate the issue, but now everything looks ok! the problem is that's not consistant. Gonna get back to you asap, when I know what steps I have to make to create the "problem"!
http://community.coreldraw.com/forums/p/44752/213238.aspx#213238 looks very similar to me ... creates colours that are show differently in the drawing area and the status line.
Hey There,
That is great. Please be as precise as possible when you do discover the method to recreate. There are occasions where only one single method will reproduce the issue, yet there are five different ways to do it.
Cheers
Can't figure out what's exactly the problem, but it also does happen with older files that I open.
But now I can't create a PDF from an older file, there are only a few parts actually in the created PDF and not my whole design.
I am going to work with X6 for now, all those things are taking to much time...
Your steps are perfect, thank you so much for the detail. I was able to manually reproduce the issue and have opened a defect that includes this information.
Regarding your issues with PDF. Can you please post the files and I will take a look.
