    Exclamation artworks and print colors

    Hello,

    I've come across the option "Simulate print colors" today. The colors simulated aren't as vivid as the ones I've chosen. This scares me a bit, since changing those colors would take a great amount of work.

    Anybody with a solution to this problem?

    Hi nvictor,

    The simulate print colours is to give you an idea of how your drawing will look when printed.

    Screen colours are RGB and have a greater colour gamut than print colours which are CMYK. Printer colours are more muted than screen colours.

    Gary's Workbook 25 has a better explanation. http://www.xaraxone.com/webxealot/workbook25/page_6.htm and Workbook 35 http://www.xaraxone.com/webxealot/workbook35/page_5.htm
