Appendix C: Using ColorSure™ and Custom
Palette
I. Introduction
ColorSure is a method for reproducing exact spot colors. There are four main
components of the ColorSure System: 1.) the transferred palette; 2.) Color
Finder; 3.) Custom Palette; and 4.) the CorelDRAW and Adobe application
palettes / swatches.
1.
ColorSure Palette: This is your main color palette that includes an
extensive selection of 190 commonly used colors.
2.
Color Finder: If a color you need is not on the ColorSure palette, the
Color Finder tool allows you to locate the exact custom color you are
looking for.
3.
Custom Palette: With the Custom Palette feature, you can add new
custom colors to the existing ColorSure Palette mentioned in step 1.
Application Palettes: You can add your Color Finder colors to an
4.
existing application palette, or you can add multiple custom colors to
new, custom palette files (*.cpl, *.acl, etc.).
II. Printing the ColorSure Palette
The first step you will want to take is to print and transfer your ColorSure palette
to the various substrates you will be using. Most likely you will have customers
who desire precise colors. Having your ColorSure palette available allows the
customer to choose the color from the palette that is the closest match to what
they want, and this gives you a starting point for finding the exact custom color
that will match your customer's needs.
To print the ColorSure palette, follow the steps below:
•
Click 'Start' and navigate to the 'Printers and Faxes' folder. Right-click on
your PowerDriver printer and select 'Printing Preferences' from the menu.
You may also open PowerDriver from within an Adobe or Corel program by
going to File, Print, and choosing the PowerDriver printer from the pull-down
menu. Click Properties to open PowerDriver.
•
Choose the paper size you will be printing the palette to (Letter, Legal, etc)
•
Choose the substrate that you will be transferring the palette to.
•
Select the speed / resolution of the palette – High Speed or High Quality.
•
Be sure to check the box to mirror your print, click 'Print Palette,' and then
transfer the palette to the previously selected substrate.
•
You now have a visual representation of how the ColorSure palette colors
will appear on that particular substrate
