You may also want to look at the "show.colors" function in the "DAAG" package to get candidate colors.

Using these particular color names, in B/W, red is darkest and yellow is lightest. I'd like to find color designations to replace yellow and green so that when printed in B/W, the yellowish color appears darker than the greenish one. Is there some tool/code I can use to find these? i.e., something to display a grid of color swatches with color codes/names I can look at in color and B/W to decide? t hanks, -- Michael Friendly Email: friendly AT yorku DOT ca Professor, Psychology Dept.
