  • serious colour problem in corel

    Hi.
    I bet you thought you would never see a question from me on sublimation.
    but here it is
    I created some files in Corel, which usually prints out fine, they were a load of logos I did and the oranges, browns and blues print fine but the greens are getting printed as blue, and a dark blue at that, I put the file into photoshop as a pdf and had the same problem, it printed fine from My R1800.
    the colours are cmyk colours but usually that dont matter.
    I know its a setting in corel somewhere but for the life of me I cant find it.
    colour management is off. its driving me nuts as usually its fine
    any suggestions?
    its only this file thats doing it so has to be something to do with the colours i chose or the way they are being translated.
    cheers

    Hi Chris.
    I did all the designs from scratch myself.
    the greens are coming out as shades of blue, I just looked at the document properties and its mostly RGB but with 6 CMYK colours in it, I assume this is whats up?
    I never really use corel for sublimation always photoshop, as its usually just photos etc and not logos. I have 34 RGB colour models and 3 CMYK
    I guess this is confusing issues lol

    this may help in colour management just switch on the rgb monitor

    coloured rings generic internal RGB profile
    monitor generic profile.

    this will show more accurate colours for normal use.

    corel forrest green is a prime example of having this bit switched on
