    I Have just been showed how to load the roland colour chart into Flexi on another forum and it works great.
    If anyone wants to know how then I’ll post the attatchment and instructions.
    This is not on the Versawoks disc, its only on there for Illustrator and Coral.

    i have it installed but it won’t swap over to palette view so you can only have it across the bottom of the screen which means you end up scrolling to find your colour. How are you finding using it

    Hi can’t point you to where to get it as it is on another site, i do have the PDF but can attach it here. You basically open the PDF in Flexi. Remove the Roland logo from the file, close the open colour palette then select "view, colour, new table". A new palette will open with nothing in right click & merge from document you palette will then have all the colours of the file in. Right click on the palette & save as Roland palette. Basically thats it you then have the roland spot palette which will be reconized by Versaworks

    Yes Kevin thats it but when I opened the pdf in was all in one colour but the Eps one comes in the right colours.
    If the pallet is at the bottom then you can just drag it out and put it where you want. Or make it floating anywhere in the screen. You can do this with the ordinary pallet as well. There are a lot of colours so you need to go by the numbers really.
    Just print out the colour chart in Versaworks and use that as a guide. The colours are dead accurate but you have to remember to check "use spot colours" in versaworks in the EPS tab of set up.
    Can someone tell me how to attatch an eps file here please.
    Kevin if you don’t close the open pallet when you start then you will get it as an extra pallet. When you save it will join onto the original pallet.
