DWF export color

When I export to DWF, all color is lost. My computer is the only one that has this problem and we can't find a setting to fix it. We have checked all settings available to change and nothing appears to be different on my computer.

Have you tried the Colour dropdown in Design Review?

I had the same problem crop up.  The colors worked fine at first, but then for no reason I could figure out, I started getting the monochrome output every time.  Or sometimes a few of the colors would come in but not all.  After a little experimentation, I found that changing the option in the DWF publishing dialog box from Complete to Express seemed to export the colors correctly.  Apparently you lose some functionality (e.g. design views, positional representations), but for my purposes, I'd rather have the colors than those things anyway.  Hope this helps.
