I often need to match a colour font in a name title to a logo. I don't seem to see a colour picker function in PD that lets me do this.
Appreciate any advice on this.
Thank you.

Hi,

I've done this several times myself but I use the following website and then just match the colours in PD using the RGB code.

Good luck!

Hi JoniH -

Ross is right - there is no HTML colour picker in PDR, so you need to use an external tool.

I use one called ColourPic, but it's not free anymore apparently. I find it more useful to have the tool onhand rather than uploading an image to a site. Oh hang on. Here's a free version but watch out for all the other rubbish on that site.

Alternatively, just take a snapshot - open it in graphics software & use the built in colour picker. Same result & you can match your colours properly.

Cheers - Tony

There is another color picker, it is a small exe on your computer Start the exe, use your mouse to pick the color spot on your computer screen. (Make a note of the values).

The Ultimate Colour picker

You want the portable version. I put the shortcut to the exe on the task bar for easy access.
