has anyone had problems using Creative Montage? i ordered a couple of logos - they are great designs but the colors come up different depending on what program i use to look at them. they also print different (REALLY DIFFERENT in a bad way).

 

i got the logo in both JPEG and PDF - the PDF is fine but i can't insert that anyway - the JPEG is the one i want to use but the colors look really bad.

 

i contacted CM about this and she said the colors were the same and there was nothing she could dohuh.gif??

 

i was wondering if anyone else experienced this?

 

thanks girlies....

Could it be the printer? I guess I didn't notice a problem with my colors from them, but then again, they weren't that specific of a color- black, red & green.

 

Have you tried increasing the quality of the printing when you print them out? That could make a difference.

My colors were brown and orange. The stickers were spot on. I gave the jpeg file to my screenprinter who converted it into a pdf and put the logos on my bags. They came out great but the orange was a little off - like lighter than it was on the stickers/any monitor I viewed the logo on. Now that you mention it I don't know if that was the screenprinter's fault or CM's?

a couple things:

 

#1 if you monitor isn't calibrated you won't see things accurately

 

#2 most printers for that kind of thing need a cmyk color profile, i'm betting your jpeg is set to rgb color profile or some sort, so it would help both see it on a calibrated monitor and to make sure its cmyk. ask the printing company to make sure what color mode they need it in. feel free to pm me if you need more help.

i'd be happy to look at the file and convert it if you need.

thanks for the offer to help! CM made me another file that is a PNG and that seems to work just fine.

but just for info - my monitor is calibrated properly (did a check right away when i saw the JPEG)

the JPEG prints differently depending on where you print but the PDF and PNG work ok - the PDF can't be inserted so now that i have the PNG i can do all o fmy DIY stuff!!!!

    • Hi everyone! I have been doing lots of research on various wedding venues all around Mexico, my fiance wants a destination wedding and I am happy to have a wedding wherever so long as the vibe is right and guests are happy!  I have been seriously looking at Cabo Azul and was trying to find potential costs for them, but only found a page about their wedding costs from 2010. Does anyone have any updated information on costs / reviews they would like to share of this venue? Or advice in general, anything helps. Thanks so much, happy wedding planning to all!
    • Hello everyone, I am dreaming of a wedding in Costa Rica and was wondering if I could get any help with venues and wedding planners. I am thinking Tamarindo because a close friend of mine lives there and I've been in town more than a couple of times, she's being helpful but is at a loss when it comes to this subject really so I was wondering if anyone here had recommendations. I am not closed to other town suggestions either, if I happen to find a good place and staff somewhere else. These are the places I have so far, has anyone had any experience with any of them?  Stay In Tamarindo Luxury Villas in Costa Rica Luxury Villas Pinilla Tropical Homes of Costa Rica The Point Luxury Villa Thank you so much for your help!
