Summary
You can change the default values for Fade, Contrast, and Monochrome for
a single or multiple DWF and DWFx underlays. To confirm the settings on a
selected DWF or DWFx underlay, use the Properties palette.
NOTE You can also use the ADJUST on page 20 command to change the fade,
contrast, and monochrome settings for DWF underlays as well as DWF, DWFx and
PDF underlays or the fade, contrast and brightness for images.
To adjust colors in the DWF or DWFx underlay, open the Properties palette
for the DWF or DWFx underlay. For more information, see Adjust Underlay
Contrast, Fade, Monochrome, and Colors for the Background.
List of Prompts
The following prompts are displayed.
Fade
Controls the fade effect of the underlay. Values range from 0 through 100.
The greater the value, the lighter the linework in the underlay appears. Works
indirectly with the contrast effect; a higher contrast value blends the underlay
into the background when fade is set to a higher value.
Contrast
Controls the contrast, and indirectly, the fading effect, of the underlay. Values
range from 0 through 100. The greater the value, the more each pixel is forced
to its primary or secondary color.
Monochrome
Controls the color saturation of all linework while maintaining the luminance.
When turned on, the linework appears in varying shades of gray starting at
black if the background color luminance is 50 percent or more. If the
background color luminance is less than 50 percent, then the colors are
inverted, with the darkest linework displaying in white, and the lightest
linework displaying in black.
