You'd need to a monitor calibration system. -----Original Message----- From: John Aldrich [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: 26 April 2011 18:53 To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: Color issues
Our marketing guy is also our product design guy. He's got some special software that allows him to take a carpet pattern and make a picture of what it should look like. We then post that picture on our website. One of the managers was complaining because the colors don't match up to the actual sample. I have tried to explain to him that it will vary quite a bit depending on the type of machine and monitor you're looking at the picture on. We showed the same picture on four different monitors hooked up to two different machines and got four different colors, a couple of them dramatically different from the other 2. Two of the monitors were Dell LCD desktop monitors, one was a Dell XPS laptop screen, the 4th was an IBM flat panel. It was the darkest and "greenest" even after resetting the monitor to the factory specs using the on-board reset. Now that I've explained the problem... any suggestions on how to get things so that they closely approximate the actual product? ~ Finally, powerful endpoint security that ISN'T a resource hog! ~ ~ <http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/Business/VIPRE-Enterprise/> ~ --- To manage subscriptions click here: http://lyris.sunbelt-software.com/read/my_forums/ or send an email to [email protected] with the body: unsubscribe ntsysadmin -- MIRA Ltd Watling Street, Nuneaton, Warwickshire, CV10 0TU, England Registered in England and Wales No. 402570 VAT Registration GB 100 1464 84 The contents of this e-mail are confidential and are solely for the use of the intended recipient.
