Abstract: brewscheme is a suite of programs, mata classes/methods/functions, and Java plugins to make it easier to improve and standardize the aesthetics of your data visualizations in Stata. It includes tools to help end users install and define new named color styles, interpolate an arbitrary number of colors between a given starting and ending color and color space, create .theme files that set general aesthetic properties in graphs, convert hexadecimal RGB values to Stata formatted RGB color strings, transform RGB values to simulate different forms of color sight impairment, create proof copies of visualizations that show how the image may be percieved by individuals with different forms of color sight impairments, search and look up meta attributes of color palettes when known/available, preview combinations of colors with or without simulated color sight impairment transformations, and generate user defined scheme files that can consume .theme files. After installing use the commands "libbrewscheme, replace" and "brewcolordb, replace override" to compile the libbrewscheme Mata library and build the color database used by brewscheme and brewtheme.
