Ballycroy Posted April 13, 2007 Share Posted April 13, 2007 Hi: On a Mac using Filemaker 8.5. I selected a fill color from the CMYK Sliders of: Cyan: 100 Magenta: 50 Yellow: 0 Black: 0 and applied it to a rectangle object. When i selected the object and checked the fill color the CMYK Sliders read: Cyan: 89 Magenta: 50 Yellow: 3 Black: 4. Why would it change like this?

comment Posted April 13, 2007 Share Posted April 13, 2007 Filemaker stores its colors as RGB, not CMYK. Apple color picker converts the values on-the-fly. There is no one-to-one mapping between these two color spaces, and several conversion algorithms are possible. In Apple's color picker, CMYK (100;50;0;0) converts to RGB (0;83;149) and this converts back as CMYK (89;50;3;4). Not really Filemaker related.
