We have had some trouble matching certain colors, I have a job that has an orange color that comes out brown or burnt orange. Other colors are right on so I don't know what might be the problem. The color in the swatch book is made up of warm red and yellow and I looked at the breakdown on the rip it is magenta and yellow so either it is incorrect amounts or the screens are off or I just can't match it. Anyone have experience with this?

Some colors on the Di are not the same as the standard pms books. Warm red is one of them. It comes out more pink looking. Did you get the cmyk build books with the press?
