Tip
•
When working on Web pages, you can
keep the number of colors used in an
image (and subsequent image size) low by
creating a color set and using only colors
in that set.
Editing Color Sets
You can customize color sets by
adding, deleting, or replacing colors.
You can also name or rename
individual colors in a color set.
Naming colors in a color set can be
useful. You can then search for a color
by name or annotate the colors you
use, right in the document window.
For more information on searching for
a color, refer to “Finding Colors in a
Color Set” on page 86. For more
information about annotating colors,
refer to “Annotating Colors” on
page 91.
To add a color:
1 Choose the color you want to add
from the Colors palette, from a
color set, or from an existing

2 On the Color Sets palette, click the
Add Color to Color Set button .
The color is added to the current
