The Process Manual
To load one of Walsworth’s Formula Colors: 1. With your page open, click the Color Information button on the Control Center. 2. Click the +Formula check box to open the color selector. 3. In the color selector dialog that opens, click to check the color(s) you wish to use. 4. Click Apply Chosen Color(s). 5. Once your color is chosen, click Apply Color Information. 6. The color(s) are added to your Swatches palette. To apply a color to a page element: 1. Select the element by clicking on it. 2. With the Swatches palette open (Window > Swatches) , click on the color you wish to apply to your page element. 3. The element will appear in the color you have applied. To apply color to text: 1. With the Type tool, click, hold and drag across the text to select it. 2. With the Swatches palette open (Window > Swatches), click on the color you wish to apply. 3. The text will appear in the color you have applied. 4. When applying color to text, do not apply a Formula Color to serif text that is smaller than 12 pt. or sans serif text that is smaller than 10 pt. This can make your type difficult to read. With page elements, such as rectangles, you can decide whether to apply the color to the fill (inside area), stroke (border) or both aspects of the elements. To apply the color to the fill, stroke or both: 1. Select the element, whether it is a text frame or a page element, then click on the Stroke at the top of the Swatches palette. This will apply the color only to the border. Click the color you wish to apply. 2. Select the element, then click on the Fill at the top of the Swatches palette. This will apply the color only to the inside of the element. Click the color you wish to apply. 3. Perform both steps to apply the color to both the fill and stroke. 4. Follow the same instructions to apply color to either the fill or stroke of type, but click the Text Formatting button at the top of the Swatches palette.
