Managing Color in Office Applications
Using color matching tools with office applications
Your Color Server user software includes two RGB color reference pages, a Microsoft
Word file and a Microsoft PowerPoint file. You can print these files using different
CRDs to see how the colors appear when printed to the Color Server. For best results,

final document. Select the colors you want to use from the printed version of the RGB
color reference page and use those colors in your document.
