MS solved the problem by ignoring B&W and using different (very ugly) colors for lines."<br /><br />That's true that finding those 12 colors is difficult (not to say nearly impossible), but if no-one tries, there is no chance to find ;-)<br /><br />So, let's just try. Maybe we can then select only 6 or 8 really distinguishable colors.Pierre-Andréhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16158512270699545976noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21721561.post-70178871035287817832006-12-08T15:25:00.000+01:002006-12-08T15:25:00.000+01:00This seems to be too ambitious : 12 <i>really</i> distinguishable gray levels for B&W printing ? It would be best if the first-used colors were really distinguishable, but I don't believe you'll get 12.<br /><br />What about color-blind users ?Fousagenoreply@blogger.com
