Specifiers and designers using Photoshop can download these colour files free from the Resene website and load them into their photoshop folder. Then when you want to use Resene colours on your Photoshop designs simply open the Resene colour palettes and choose the colours that suit.

Resene now have an extensive electronic colour section and offer solutions for AutoCAD/Revit, ArchiCAD, Photoshop, SketchUp, Design2Cam, Softplan, Spirit, Chief Architect, Vectorworks, plus RGB values, colour jpegs and EzyPaint virtual painting software and the iSwatch and ColourMatch iPhone apps.

This covers the main design tools used locally, but if you are using other software that is not catered for in their electronic colour offering simply fill in the contact form on their website with details of the software you are using and they will investigate what is needed to make Resene electronic colour available to you.

And for those who would rather Resene take care of the colouring, they also offer the Resene RenderRite service.  Resene staff will take your design or image and digitally recolour it in your chosen Resene colours so you can visualise the paint finish before the painting starts.

Downloads and/or information for all of these are accessible from the Resene website. Select the grey tab at the top of the page to navigate to your desired programme or electronic colour tool.
