Monitor settings
The brightness and contrast controls on your monitor can change how
your document looks on-screen. Additionally, your monitor colour
temperature influences how "warm" or "cool" the colours look.
Several of the Colour Matching options make reference to your monitor's
Colour Temperature. Many modern monitors allow the colour
temperature to be adjusted using the monitor's control panel.
There are several settings found on a typical monitor:
5000k Warmest; yellowish lighting, typically used in graphics 5000k
5000k 5000k

arts environments.
6500k 6500k Cooler; approximates daylight conditions. 6500k 6500k
>
9300k Cool; the default setting for many monitors and 9300k
9300k 9300k
>
television sets.
(k = degrees Kelvin, a measurement of temperature)
How your software application displays colour
Some graphics applications such as Corel Draw or Adobe Photoshop
may display colour differently from "office" applications such as
Microsoft Word. Please see your application's online help or user
manual for more information.
Paper type
The type of paper used can also significantly affect the printed colour.
For example, a printout on recycled paper can look duller than one on
specially formulated glossy paper.
