Change Colors dialog

Use this dialog you to control the colors available in your document. Access it in one of the following ways:

When you are creating a new document, the Document Setup Color Options dialog has a Change button which displays this dialog. You can add and delete colors until you create the list you need.
After the document is created, select Edit > Document Colors, to display this dialog. You can add, substitute, and delete colors.
After the document is created, you can edit the Color Palette. Select Edit > Color Palette, then click Change button which displays this dialog.
After the document is created, you can add a graphic file. The Modify Graphic Colors dialog has a Change Colors button which displays this dialog.

CAUTION: Some colors that you may have used previously on other forms may be marked as discontinued. These colors are no longer supported by Scantron Print Services. If you will be using Scantron Print Services to print your form, do not use any color marked as discontinued.

TIP: Due to the use of a different light source (white versus red or infrared), the iNSIGHT 20/20 Plus and iNSIGHT 30 scanners use a different set of form colors than other Scantron scanners. See Color Options for Data Collection Forms or Appendix A of the appropriate scanner's Operator's Guide or the appropriate color book (if available) for a list of form colors approved for use with these scanners.

Selected Colors	View a list of which colors are currently available for use in your design. Black and White (opaque) are required colors and cannot be substituted or deleted. You can have a maximum of seven colors (including black and white) for single-sided documents; nine colors (including black and white) for double-sided documents. You can change the colors on this list, other than black and white, by using Add, Substitute and Delete; see the descriptions below. NOTE: If you are using the iNSIGHT 20/20 Plus or iNSIGHT 30 scanners, highlight colors are not available for these scanners. If you are using ink, you can only substitute dropout colors. If you are using pencil, you can only add dropout colors.
Dropout Colors	View a list of selections available for adding to or substituting from the Selected Colors list. Dropout colors are colors that are not visible to the scanner. Your document must have at least one dropout color defined.
Highlight Colors	View a list of selections available for adding to or substituting from the Selected Colors list. Highlight colors include both dropout and non-dropout colors.
Highlight Color Model	Choose which set of highlight colors is used in the Highlight Colors list. The options are DesignExpert Colors and PANTONE Solid Colors. Both types of highlight colors can be used in the same form design.
Add	Add a dropout or highlight color to the Selected Colors list. Select a color from either the Dropout Colors or Highlight Colors list Click Add. The color you added appears on the Selected Colors list. Once you have the maximum number of colors on the Selected Colors list, you receive a message stating you cannot add more colors. At that time you can change colors using Substitute, or delete a color using Delete.
Substitute	Substitute a different dropout or highlight color for a color currently on the Selected Colors list. Select a color from the Selected Colors list then select a color from either the Dropout Colors or Highlight Colors list. Click Substitute. The color from the Dropout or Highlight list replaces the color on the Selected list. The color palette is updated to show the new color selection and all shapes using the original color are automatically changed to the new color. CAUTION: The substitute feature also replaces the color used in previously placed graphics and shapes, both in the Dropout and Highlight colors areas.
Delete	Delete a color from the Selected Colors list, with the exception of Black and White which are required colors. Select any color other than black or white from the Selected Colors list. Click Delete. The color is removed from the Selected Colors list. If the document contains shapes that are using the color you have selected to delete, a warning message appears telling you that all shapes using the color will be deleted. CAUTION: All shapes using this color will be deleted! If you see the deleted shapes prompt, click OK to delete the shapes as well as the color. OR Click Cancel to stop the delete action. If you cancel the delete, you can change the color of shapes with the Substitute button, or modify the shape’s colors using the options dialog appropriate for the shape.
