I create everything in Illustrator. I have set swatches that I use for all my designs that need to be used as I have clients that have physical prints of these color charts. The problem is, I can change the color of the artwork and design elements in the file and it prints the correct color, but when using the same exact swatch on the font, it does not carry over and gives me an off-shade of whatever the color is, while the design elements in the same file (strokes, shapes, etc.) are printing the right shade. This happens when printing from both Illustrator and as a PDF from Acrobat. I've tried creating a new doc and typing text, but the swatch still does not carry over. I used to be able to print from Illustrator and the problem was resolved, but now all the sudden it's not working in either application. I would prefer to print everything as a PDF, but I have never been able to get the correct color printing this way. Also I've tested this on several fonts and I get the same problem.
Any help would be much appreciated. Thank you.
