V. The Custom Palette
Let us assume that you have found the exact color you need using the Color
Finder tool. What you will want to do next is apply these custom color values to
either an existing palette, or to create a new custom palette altogether. This allows
you access to this color again should the same job arise
.
How to use Custom Palette:
•
First, you need to assign the CMYK values of the matched color from the
Color Finder palette to the Output Color CMYK fields in the Custom
Palette section.
•
Give your new custom color a descriptive Name in its designated field
(e.g. IBM Blue).
•
Next, assign an RGB Input Color value. There are two methods to
establish this value.
1. If you have the original file, sample the color that was matched in
your graphic design application with the eye dropper tool. This will
give you the RGB value of that color. Input this value into the RGB
Input Color fields of the Custom Palette section.
2. If you do not have the original file, or the artwork has not yet been
designed, simply click on the ‘Input Color Chooser’ button, and
then click on “Define Custom Colors”. From the color matrix, find a
color that closely resembles the color that you are adding to the
custom palette. At the bottom-right of the color matrix window are
the RGB values. Simply click ‘OK’ and the RGB Input Color values
will be automatically entered. Please take note of these RGB
values for later use in your design applications.
• Click
the
Add Color button. A window will pop up asking you whether
you want to add the color to the palette for all substrates, or just the
current substrate. Click ‘YES’ here unless you have the same custom
color saved on palettes for other substrates. Another window will then
ask you if you want to save the custom color for all resolutions or just the
current one. Click ‘YES’ here unless you have the same custom color
saved on palettes for other resolutions.
•
Lastly, click the Save Palette button. When finished, simply Exit out of
the window.
* The ‘Import Palette’ and ‘Export Palette’ buttons are convenient to have in the
event you need to transfer palettes to and from different computers.
