Choosing a radial spot foil fill
Radial fills create fades that blend from one tint percentage to another in concentric circles from
the inside of the shape outward. Position in the Tint group box places the fill based on a
percentage from 1 to 100%. When using Radial fills the Radial Center Offset is available. It
allows you to shift the center of a radial fill away from the center of the selected shape by
entering X and Y % offsets. When applying a radial fill to an object using spot colors, there are
four attributes that must be assigned to the fill: Palette, Color, Tint and Position, and Radial
Center Offset.
To choose a radial solid foil fill
1 Click Fill to open the Fill tab of the Assign Colors dialog box.
2 Choose Radial in the Fill Type group box.
3 Choose Spot in the Color Type box.
4 Choose a palette in the drop down list.
5 Select a color in the Color group box.
6 Enter a Tint % from 1-100% in the Tint group box.

group box.
