QUARKXPRESS
You must add colors to a QuarkXpress color palette by importing an .eps file. QuarkXpress adds the colors in an
.eps file to its color list. Once the colors are in your color list, you can use the colors in your document.
To load PANTONE®* colors into QuarkXpress
1. Open Applicat\Quark folder and copy the contents to a folder on your hard disk.
2. Use a printout of the PANTONE®* color palette to locate the colors that you want to import. (See the section
on printing the PANTONE®* color chart for instructions.)
3. On the printout, note the number that appears at the bottom of the column containing your color. This number
ranges from 1 to 92 and might include decimal values.
4. Refer to the following list to determine which chart file contains the color you want:
Column number from
PANTONE®* printout: PS or TIFF chart filename
Column 1 through column 11.5 1-16.eps or 1-16.tif
Column 12 through column 2 17-32.eps or 17-32.tif
Column 24 through column 30.5 33-48.eps or 33-48.tif
Column 31 through column 40 49-64.eps or 49-64.tif
Column 41 through column 52.3 65-80.eps or 65-80.tif
Column 52.4 through column 62.5 81-96.eps or 81-96.tif
Column 63 through column 71 97-112.eps or 97-112.tif
Column 71.3 through column 84 113-128.eps or 113-128.tif
Column 85 through column 92 129-135.eps or 129-135.tif
5. Import the correct EPS file.
The colors automatically load into your palette for use in QuarkXpress.
Note:
Depending on your system configuration, QuarkXpress might not add all the colors in the PANTONE®* library into
the color list. The number of colors within a QuarkXpress palette is limited by the amount of memory you have
allocated to the program and the complexity of the file.
Do not rename PANTONE®* Colors created in ColorDrive from within QuarkXpress. Removing the leading space
in front of the color name causes QuarkXpress to redefine the color from its built-in values.
CORELDRAW
CorelDRAW Supports the .cpl format for version 7 and beyond and the .pal format for older versions. The files
HP4550C.cpl and HP4550C.pal for PS and HP4550R.cpl and HP4550R.pal for PCL are stored in the
Applicat\CORELDRW folder. Place these files in a folder on your hard disk, the CUSTOM directory in the
CorelDRAW directory structure is recommended. Do not use the RGB palettes with the PS driver in CorelDRAW.
