• 5000k or D50
Warmest; yellowish lighting, typically used in graphics arts
environments.
• 6500k or D65
Cooler; approximates daylight conditions.
• 9300k
Cool; the default setting for many monitors and television
sets.

How your software application displays color
Some graphics applications such as Macromedia Freehand or
Adobe Photoshop may display color 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
color. For example, a printout on recycled paper can look duller
than one on specially formulated glossy paper.
NOTE
Several of the Color Matching options make reference to
your monitor’s Color Temperature. Many modern monitors
allow the color temperature to be adjusted using the
monitor’s control panel.
