I've been through all the discussions I can find on using color libraries in Frame, then saving to pdf, and I've discovered that, no matter what options I choose in the "Color" tab in the Distiller job options, all the blues I choose come out in ugly bright "hypertext" blue. (Note that colors in my graphics files are just fine...it's only colors I'm applying to para tags that are coming out wonky.) My question is: I was choosing colors only from the "Online" color library in Frame, to save other potential hassles (users not being able to view the color that I chose, etc). If I'm just looking for a navy blue, is it at all dangerous to take something from one of the other libraries, or make my own using the Color Picker? Or, am I way off? Is there something I'm missing about making the colors from the "online" library look in the pdf file like they do in the Frame file? I found that a lot of the oranges, pinks, reds, etc, looked pretty close, but for some reason all the blues are very bright... Note: I'm making the pdf myself. I'm using Frame 6, Distiller 4.0. Thanks!
