Is there any way to maintain color consistency in powerpoint presentations?
I create presentations and test them around my office and the colors look
different from screen to screen. And then look totally different when blown
up in a large projection at a conference or large meeting. I understand this
is probably just an issue of calibration of the equipment, but what can I do
to fix it?
 
Colorizer bunny,

The issue of consistency is not really a powerpoint issue.

Any applications' colors are going to look different from screen to screen,
and certainly when projected and printed.

See
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Color_space

unless every single device has had it's color calibrated through the whole
start to finish process :)

You're correct, it's more of a calibration issue. There is a device that you
can use to "profile" a projector/computer/room combination quickly, then apply
that color profile to your presentation.

The product was originally developed by Gretag/Macbeth but is now owned by
Xrite. Have a look round their site:

Look for terms like "i1 Beamer" or "eye 1" or the like.
