Calibrating your monitor
It is important that the colors represented on your monitor are reasonably accurate and meaningful. For example, red should really look red and not like a shade of orange or purple, and 50% gray shouldn’t look like light gray or dark gray.
In Corel PaintShop Pro, you can use a wizard that steps you through the process of calibrating your monitor so it displays accurate colors. At the end of the process, you can save a color profile for your monitor and apply the adjustments.
To calibrate your monitor |

Maximizing the dialog box eliminates distracting background colors. |

wizard.

In the Save As dialog box, type a name for your monitor profile in
the File Name box, and click Save.

If you have Administrator privileges for your computer, the profile becomes the active monitor profile. |
If you do not have Administrator privileges for your computer, a message appears informing you to contact your System Administrator to install the profile. |
You can also calibrate red, green, and blue tones for your
monitor by marking the Advanced options check box when it
appears on a wizard page.

You can clear the calibration settings for a wizard page by
clicking Reset.
