Filling with a clear fill

Use clear fills to block out an object so that the vinyl color shows through. You can apply a
Clear fill in two ways:
♦ Using the Clear swatch located at the top of the foil palettes. The Clear fill is
indicated by the swatch with a crosshair.
♦ Choosing Clear in the Assign Colors dialog box. Choosing spot or process in the Color
Type group box has no effect when using the Clear fill.

Filling with a spot foil

Choose a spot foil for situations, such as using only one foil to create a color and using tint to
vary the fill color. There are several Fill Types from which to choose: Solid, Gradient, Linear and
Radial. Once you have selected one of those Fill Types, other attribute choices become available
for example color, tint, and palette. For more information on Spot foil palettes refer to "Making,
Using, and Editing Palettes." For information on using the Spectratone palette refer to "Making
and Using Spectratone Colors."
Choosing a solid spot foil fill
