MACROMEDIA FREEHAND 10-USING FREEHAND Use Manual page 306

On the Macintosh, you can set the screen display to dither 8-bit colors, to create a
closer approximation of colors that do not appear in the 8-bit (256-color) palette.
Dithering adjusts adjacent pixels of different colors to create the appearance of a
third color. For example, a blue color and a yellow color may dither onscreen to
create the appearance of a green color that does not appear in the 8-bit color palette.
Choose Edit > Preferences. Click Colors.
