Re: Automated BG Color change?

Hi All

>I also understand that MAC and Wintel render colors differently (same RGB
>codes look different )

I have a Mac and design pages for a client that has a PC. I haven't 
experienced the codes showing different colors---colors are always a 
shade darker on his PC so I make them just a tad bit lighter than I 
think they should be.
