Colors with names like that come from PNG graphics that are set to
"indexed colors" or "256 colors." Such graphics contain a defined
palette of (up to) 256 colors defined by their RGB values, and FM adds
those to its list of defined colors.
They're easy to get rid of once you replace the offending graphics. To
do that, simply convert them to 24-bit color ("true color"). True color
PNG files aren't that much bigger than the indexed color ones.
After all the indexed color files are gone, save the FM docs as MIF,
then open the MIF files, check the color definitions (the RGB colors
should be gone), and resave as FM.
HTH!
