Default How do I control the light/dark variations Excel 2007 color th

The contrast/brightness doesn't impact the color when it prints... If i
wasn't clear I apologize; I need to be able to control the RGB value of the
lighter color options in the 2007 theme.

And yes, the company really wants 12 color options.

Really.

Hello!

I'm converting Excel chart templates from 2003 to 2007. The problem: the
company has 12 distinct colors it uses for its charts. Now, 6 of the 12
colors are lighter versions of the others, BUT none of the automatically
generated lighter colors match.

Is there ANY WAY to control how the lighter color variations in the theme in
2007?

Help!

Have you tried adjusting the brightness and contrast settings of your
monitor?

If that doesn't help, perhaps your company needs to rethink its color
scheme. Do you really need twelve colors?
