LOL - that's my nemesis as well. I sometimes feel as if it is "Me vs them,"
where "them" is the colors and they always win.

My nemesis is always Color 11.
There's also a FrameScript or two out there, maybe one of Rick Quatro's,
that cleans the catalogs, including Color and another one that removed

We ran into that a lot with beginning with FM8. As you say, it seems to be 
related to colors brought in by graphics.

Color8 or Color9? Yeah, even though I rarely (if ever) mess with the color
definitions, I almost always have at least one file where Color8 or Color9
becomes "inconsistent".I have even handedited MIF files to remove the color
completely, and it shows back up. It seems to have to do with imported
graphics. As near as I can tell, FM creates new color definitions if you
import a graphic that has colors that aren't already defined in the
document. So if the same graphic isn't in all of the files in a document,
you wind up with inconsistent colors.

Re: [Framers] Print settings for colors is inconsistent

2018-08-30 Thread Craig Ede
If the color is not used you can delete the offending color(s) without a 
warning message. That will remove the error.


My dim recollection is that FM seems to use one file (maybe  the book file) as 
the source for known colors. Additional colors that occur in the other files 
can cause this problem. If you have a template file with known good colors, 
import the colors from that file across you book, too.

Subject: [Framers] Print settings for colors is inconsistent

Hi,

when I  update a book, or try to print it, I receive a message that the
print settings for all sorts of colors is inconsistent.

This occurs both with Frame 2017 and when I opened the files in Frame 2019.

I tried a few times to open one file and then do
import formats/color definitions from that file to all other files in the
book so they would have the same settings, but I still receive this message.

Are there any ideas about how to resolve this issue?

I did not create these colors myself, and we do not use them in particular.
