The following article provides a list of basic color names
used in the Colors dialog box. (With a drawing object selected, point to Fill Color, then click More Colors on the Format menu.) In Microsoft Publisher, the names are displayed in a
ScreenTip for each color swatch.
NOTE: Some basic colors do not have friendly names (red, emerald,
avocado, and so on) assigned to them. For those colors, the RGB value is
displayed in the tip rather than the name.
Colors with assigned names are listed in the following
table. Colors that are defined in terms of their RGB values are not listed
here.

Community Feedback System
Very often, it takes hours to solve a problem. Very often, you've looked high
and low, and have tried a lot of solutions. When you finally found it, chances
are, it was because someone else helped you. Here's your chance to give back.
Use our community feedback tool to let others know what worked for you and what
didn't.
Please also understand that the community feedback system is not warranted to be
correct, it's simply a system that we've built to let people try and help each
other. If something in a feedback response doesn't make sense to you, or you're
not comfortable making changes that the feedback talks about (like registry
edits), please consult a professional.
Thank you for using kbAlertz.com Feedback System.
