Color, Opacity, and Drop Shadows
QuarkXPress lets you create custom colors, choose colors from several
standardized color matching systems, and edit colors. You can apply both color
and shade to text and pictures. You can also control the opacity of text in the
same way you control its color. You can apply drop shadows to both items and
text.
Working with colors
Some colors are automatically included in the Colors palette. To use other
colors, you’ll need to create colors or edit existing colors using the Colors dialog
box, which allows you to create colors using color wheels, numeric fields, or
color matching systems. You can also add colors to your project using the color
picker tool.
The Colors palette
You can use the Colors palette (Window > Colors) to add, create, edit, duplicate,
and manage project colors. The palette also allows you to control the border,
picture and box fill, and blend modes, overprint and knockout settings.
The Colors palette lets you create, edit, and delete colors.
