Re: [Framers] Print settings for colors is inconsistent
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 unused ones.

Re: [Framers] Print settings for colors is inconsistent
We ran into that a lot with beginning with FM8. As you say, it seems to be related to colors brought in by graphics.

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.

Re: [Framers] Print settings for colors is inconsistent
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
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.
