My white turned gray in two Freehand MX documents in a row now. Anybody encounter this? Is this some form of file corruption. Can one re-designate these "defualt colors" like black and white?
This is a lagitamately licenced copy of FH. I just don't want to bug the IT dude, who is also the owner of the company. If I bother him about this I will lose points.
Pleeeease please help,
-not feeling so leet now

I will try to help. I need some more information. Does it just look different on the screen or does it print funny or both. Does it change the document or just the pallets? If you look at the swatches in the swatch pallet, hold the option key and double click on swatch it should tell you the setting. My white is 255, 255, 255 and my black is 0, 0, 0. please post more information.

Artwork on screen looks gray. Also the white color in the swatch and all panels apears gray. Prints look normal -white is paper. The information in the color panel is 0,0,0,0 - 255, 255, 255 -white of coarse.

Did you try printing anything? How about checking your monitor calibration in the system preferences? Those are the right numbers for the colors so the document might be ok and just look grey because of the monitor.

Prints look normal (white is white or page color).
If I open a new document, the background looks white as usual. But then if I draw a white rectangle it looks off-white, and is visable on the white background.
