printing Flexi color charts

[gabagoo]

I remember years ago someone had mentioned how you go about creating a swatch chart in Flexi so you can print it out... I was pretty sure it was memorized or written down, but I guess not...anyone remember?

You could just pull a Pantone chart off Google images, print it as big as you want, hang it on the wall or make a swatch book out of it for the lobby. We have used this method with great success and consistency....just make sure you use the same media and icc when you go to production.
Also, in 8.1 at least, under the VIEW menu there is 'create swatch' option.

Best of Luck

Like Snydo says in most versions of flexi there is a create swatch tab under view that lets you create duotone, cmyk and current palette. If you can't figure it out let me know what type of swatch table you want and what size and I can create one and email it to you.

I know Signlab under test print there is an option to print different swatch books.

If like me you use the Roland printer, there's a Versawork color chart that has been formatted to use in Flexi so that way, when you're designing, you can assign color codes recognizable by Versawork instantly. 'Saves a lot of trouble. If you want to print official Versawork "mastered" colors, you can print 'em directly in Versawork (under: MEDIA) and the colors will match 100% with the ones you'll put in you Flexi files.
