color changes between machines

Here's an interesting problem.  I have some fairly complex OmniGraffle 
files that were created on one machine and edited on another.  On the 
creation machine, several objects had gradient fills where one of the 
colors was 50% grey.  When that file is transferred directly to the 
editing machine and opened, all the 50% greys have turned to 80% grey.  
The only significant difference between the machines that I could find 
is that one is running Jaguar and one is running Panther.  I 
double-checked that theory by opening the same file, unchanged, on 
another Jaguar machine and another Panther machine.  The Jaguar machine 
opened it fine with 50% greys; the Panther machine opened it with 80% 
greys.

On the Panther machine, I was able to change all the 80% greys back to 
50% without a problem.  I haven't tried sending the file back to Jaguar 
to see what happens.
