[comp.sys.mac.apps] one more Power Point question

gt7601b@prism.gatech.EDU (TSUNG,FU-LIN) (08/25/90)

  When I copy a picture to the scrapbook and past it in Power Point 2.0,
the color are often changed, same thing also happens when I try to copy a
PP picture to another program. (ex.  Red  turns to brown), Anybody know
why this happens?

                            Thanks.

If your files are heavy in color (more than 256) you might have a
problem.  Suppose you have 256+ colors on a 8-bit video card, then you
might need some color that could not be inserted into the color table
and therefore a close color is chosen.  Presentation programs and
output programs need to more work to get the colors to be what the
user and chosen.  Each time a window is activated the color table that
it needs, needs to be applied.
