How are you coming up with the 8 digit numbers? If I export a rectangle 
filled with #FEFCEC, and with the palette set to exact, I get a cream 
color which doesn't change upon reloading in Fireworks.

Are you switching between graphics programs that use different color 
spaces? Do you have Snap to Web Safe turned off in Fireworks?

Unless unless you have snap to websafe turned on, or you are exporting 
with an adaptive palette and not locking the cream color in, you 
shouldn't be getting a color shift with Fireworks.

In Fireworks CS3, I open a png file. The color is FE FC EC FF. I save the file 
as a gif. I open the gif in Fireworks, the color is FE FE ED FF. Why am I 
getting a color shift? When multiple people work on the same web page, each 
user will get a different color result so the various graphics on a single page

using the same color will all actually have different colors in them. How do I 
fix this?
