Roland,
I think it's just the way the thread color is represented in the software.
Those may be good colors after all.
Sorry to fill up this mailbox.

Roland,
I sent you a file (directly to you) showing the "close" matches with the
Pantones and the ARC Poly next to it. It's not perfect, to say the least. I
was getting much closer with Madeira Poly.

I have Pantone 287 (a dark blue- Madeira 1842)  Pantone 659 (lighter  
shade of blue-no Madeira comes up)  Pantone 179 (red-Madeira 1779)  
and pantone 143 (yellowgold- no madeira again!).
Need to have the Melco ARC numbers so I can forward this logo to a  
couple other Amaya users that need it and we all have to match the  
thread colors.
I've tried comparing my melco thread charts to the actual printouts I  
did with digital printer, but using 2 different printer drives I get  
2 totally different color guides! And without a $99 pantone color  
book-I can't compare to that either!
We all have to 'meet the specs' to get the orders.
Roland
