Examples of brush strokes produced by Web-
friendly brushes.
A few of the new brush variants
included in Corel Painter are not one-
color brushes. If you are concerned
about having Web-safe colors, make
sure the Corel Painter Color set or the
Corel Painter Colors-WEB Color Set
is loaded, then change the image into
Web-safe colors by choosing Effects
menu > Tonal Control > Posterize
Using Color Set. For more
information about the Posterize Using
Color Set command, refer to
“Working with Posterize Using Color
Set” on page 411.
Calligraphic velocity (left) and calligraphic
velocity posterized (right).
Use a digitizing tablet for the brush’s
colors to work properly. When the first
color is darker than the second color,
dark areas show up in the thicker parts
of the brush strokes—the places
where brush velocity is slower. After
posterizing, the stroke has the
appearance of pigment that has
pooled in one place and dried darker.
The result is a very web-efficient,
limited-color image, with the
appearance of natural media.
