    Hello

    Has anyone experienced the problem where the colour of an object created from a pattern swatch is different from the colours that were used to create the pattern swatch in the first place.

    This happens in CMYK and RGB documents, happens on several different computers (haven’t had the chance to try a different printer) and happens no matter what colour management is used.

    Any help and advice would be useful.

    Thanks

    1) Book Color:If you used any book color(eg: twaeking the CMYK values of a PMS) and modified them, Adobe modifies them back to their original book color when you paste into another document.

    2)Color Settings: The color settings might be different on abothercomputer or file, so the same color will display and print differently.

    Hope this helkps, if not give us a little more detail such as is the color shifitng between prints, displays or the actual values.
