ADOBE FIREWORKS CS3

Websafe colors are colors that are common to both Macintosh and Windows platforms. These colors are not dithered 
when viewed in a web browser on a computer display set to 256 colors.

Fireworks has several methods of applying and using websafe colors.

❖

Select Web 216 from the Indexed Palette pop-up menu in the Optimize panel.

❖

Select Web Adaptive from the Indexed Palette pop-up menu in the Optimize panel.

Non-websafe colors that are close to websafe colors are converted to the closest websafe color.

Select a color in the Optimize panel color table.

 Click the Snap to Web Safe button.

If you save a Fireworks PNG, changing colors to websafe in the Optimize panel affects only the exported version of 
the image, not the actual image.

You can save custom palettes as external palette files. You can use saved palettes with other Fireworks documents or 
in other applications that support external palette files, such as Adobe FreeHand, Adobe Flash, and Adobe 
Photoshop. Saved palette files have the .act extension.

Select Save Palette from the Optimize panel Options menu.

Type a name for the palette and select a destination folder.

Click Save.

You can load the saved palette file into the Swatches panel or Optimize panel for use when exporting other 
documents.

You can compress GIF files to make them even smaller than usual by changing their loss setting. Higher loss settings 
can yield smaller files but lower image quality. A loss setting between 5 and 15 typically yields the best results.
