2. Chapter Objectives Colorize a grayscale image Work with opacity and feathering Work with blending modes Apply transparency to placed graphics © 2010 Delmar Cengage Learning

3. Colorize a Grayscale Image A grayscale image is only one color, usually black. A grayscale image placed in InDesign can have other colors applied to it. © 2010 Delmar Cengage Learning

4. Colorize a Grayscale Image Colorizing grayscale images in InDesign – You can apply one swatch color to the highlights (light areas) and another to the shadows (dark areas) © 2010 Delmar Cengage Learning

5. Colorize a Grayscale Image Colorizing grayscale images in InDesign – To colorize light areas, select graphics frame with Selection Tool and apply one swatch color –To colorize dark areas select graphic with Direct Selection Tool and click swatch in Swatches panel © 2010 Delmar Cengage Learning

8. Work with Opacity and Feathering Opacity comes from opaque: meaning neither transparent nor translucent– can’t be seen through. –InDesign objects have 100% opacity by default –The more you decrease opacity, the more see-through they become © 2010 Delmar Cengage Learning

9. Work with Opacity and Feathering If you manipulate opacity of graphic in Illustrator or Photoshop, InDesign will recognize and preserve the opacity setting. © 2010 Delmar Cengage Learning

10. Work with Opacity and Feathering Applying a feathered edge –Basic Feather command, found on Object menu or Effects panel, allows you to apply feathered edge to selected objects © 2010 Delmar Cengage Learning

11. Work with Opacity and Feathering Feathering is a form of transparency as edge becomes increasingly transparent. If you place graphic with feathered edge, graphic too will be feathered. © 2010 Delmar Cengage Learning

14. Work with Blending Modes Blending modes allow you to create different transparency and color effects where two or more objects overlap. Blending modes work by comparing the colors in the overlapping graphics and running the colors through an algorithm to produce the effect. © 2010 Delmar Cengage Learning

15. Work with Blending Modes Blending modes are found in the Transparency panel –Multiply is a blending mode, that when applied to an object, makes the object transparent yet retain color White areas become transparent Black areas remain black © 2010 Delmar Cengage Learning

16. Work with Blending Modes Multiply effect occurs at areas of overlap © 2010 Delmar Cengage Learning

17. Apply Transparency to Placed Graphics Applying transparency to placed graphics –Manipulate opacity in placed graphics from other applications like Photoshop or Illustrator –Manipulate opacity of.pdf,.indd,.eps, and.tiff files placed in InDesign © 2010 Delmar Cengage Learning

18. Apply Transparency to Placed Graphics Multiply blending mode makes all white areas become transparent. When black color is multiplied with any other color, result is black. When white is multiplied with any color, white becomes transparent. Screen blending mode works as inverse of Multiply. © 2010 Delmar Cengage Learning

20. Apply Transparency to Placed Graphics Removing white background with Multiply mode White background becomes transparent © 2010 Delmar Cengage Learning

21. Apply Transparency to Placed Graphics Multiply mode – white areas become transparent Screen mode – black areas become transparent © 2010 Delmar Cengage Learning
