Import RGB swatches

Hi,

I have made an IND document in Document RGB. I don't want to start a Web document (New document - Intent - Web) cause I need higher resolution, but I need the document to be in RGB mode cause I'm showing RGB colors only. My RGB is set to sRGB and that is correct for my intent. When I try to import a pre-made RGB swatch (Load swatches) my RGB ACO is not available, it only allows the CMYK ASE to be imported. I made two. When I made the RGB swatch ACO was my only option so I had to save it as an ACO file. Why is the RGB swatch out of sight? Why can't I import the RGB swatches in the RGB document?

From the swatches panel, select load swatches and navigate to the document that contains the swatches.

The intent has no effect on resolution of anything, it just gives you different defaults to begin.

BobLevine, as mentioned in my post I was not able to load my RGB ACO file by loading a new swatch from the swatches panel. The intent generates a lowres document based on pixels, I could increase the pixel res. of course but I would much rather work independent of resolution as normal within IND in an RGB space. I could make the RGB swatches as library elements within PS and then open the library in IND, but I would rather have my RGB swatches in the IND color swatch panel. But am I'm working in RGB?!

There is no such thing as a low res InDesign document. The documents do not have resolution.

Just change the units from pixels to inches and change the dimensions to what ever you want.
