How Your Software Application Displays Color
Some graphics applications such as CorelDRAW
®
or Adobe
®
Photoshop
®
may display color differently from "office" applications
such as Microsoft
®
Word. Please see your application’s on-line help
or user manual for more information.
Paper Type
The type of paper used can also significantly affect the printed color.
For example, a printout on recycled paper can look duller than one
on specially formulated glossy paper.
