Printing color from Powerpoint
We are having great difficulty in our shop printing BLUE to our HP Designjet
5500ps from Powerpoint which comes out PURPLE. If it is a solid background, no problem, we can make a fill box with a color we discovered through testing that prints to blue. The problem comes when it is a texture or picture, like a sky with fluffy clouds that comes out purple! We have tried switching the color profile to sRGB like Powerpoint has, but no go. We have also switched from Productivity setting to Max Quality setting and Max Quality +enhanced IQ to no avail. Even if we make the file into a PDF it prints purple. We do not have this problem with any other program, ie Publisher, Photoshop, etc. Please help, we are at our wits end trying to figure out how to make our blues come out blue! ---------------- This post is a suggestion for Microsoft, and Microsoft responds to the suggestions with the most votes.

Printing color from Powerpoint
Hi Troy, sorry I did not get back to you yesterday.
When we get files for poster making it is largly in Powerpoint, Publisher, a PDF or Photoshop. I will have to test how Word and Excel do. The nice thing about Publisher is it has the choice of both RGB and CMYK so you can choose the format you want. Thanks for helping us and I am going to go send some tests from Word and Excel. Take care!!!
