You can convert vector objects to grayscale or convert grayscale graphics to
another color for a monochrome effect using the Convert to Grayscale Xtra.
Converting a color also converts any tints based on it.
Choose Xtras > Colors > Convert to Grayscale. Objects are converted to
unnamed gray tints and the tint base colors, according to the color mode of
the original object.
Convert the object to grayscale as described in the previous procedure.
1
Use the Eyedropper tool to select a gray tint from the object and add it to the
2
Swatches panel.
Choose Xtras > Colors > Name All Colors.
3
This action names the grayscale tint you added to the Swatches panel. It also
adds the tint's base color to the Swatches panel. The remaining grayscale tints
in the object are linked to that base color.
In the Swatches panel, drag the desired color onto the base color to redefine all
4
grayscale tints in your objects based on the new color.
If you are using gradients with more than two colors, repeat steps 1 through 4
for each additional color.
You can replace all colors of the same name in your artwork by replacing the
global process color or spot color swatches in the Swatches panel. See "Finding
and replacing graphics" on page 193.
You can also randomly change all of the colors in the color list, using the
Randomize Named Colors Xtra. Experiment with this Xtra to create new
color combinations.
You cannot replace the default Black, White, None, or Registration colors.
In the Swatches panel, select a color name.
