#XSCOPE COLORS WRONG CHROME SOFTWARE#
When I encounter a color mismatch, I deal with it like so (a tactic I suspect many of you take too): fiddle with various color settings in image editing software and source code until it works out, and hope to remember the magic recipe the next time the problem happens. It’s enough to drive one back to vintage Macs that only display black and white. Or they don’t match on any devices, and good luck identifying the cause. Or they do match on some devices, but not on others. Getting colors right? Here are a few scenarios: a graphic image and CSS background color should match exactly, but they don’t. Thousands of different displays are in use, and our work might appear on any or all of them. Now with digital designs, we have no control over the output platform. I’d go to the print shop, examine the first copies off the press, and if they looked good, I’d feel confident that the whole print run would look the same. Getting color right wasn’t easy, but it was completely under my control as a designer, because I could target the output.
