I'm using LPub to generate my building instructions out of Ldraw files. The

renderer, but that one renders the colors tan and dark tan exactly the
same... I don't have a preferred renderer, so if anyone knows how to
solve one of the two problems, it would be great! I'm using the latest
LPub and I'm running on Mac OS X Snow Leopard.

ldglite is is pretty old at this point, but it should be able to redefine
colors using the ldconfig.ldr file.  However since it is really old it may
expect to find that file in the same folder as the model file being rendered
instead of in the ldraw directory where it gets installed these days.  I
gave that a try on my old OS-X Tiger machine and it seemed to work.

Ok, ldglite's not the only thing showing it's age.  I should've remembered
this sooner, but better late than never.  If you *always* want to use the
ldconfig.ldr file in ldglite you just need to copy it in the ldraw/models
subdirectory.  Then ldglite will always find it.
