Using the Swatches palette
You can control all document colors and gradients in the Swatches palette alone. Use it to
create, name, and store colors and gradients for instant access. When the fill or stroke of
selected text or an object contains a color or gradient applied from the Swatches palette,
the applied swatch is highlighted in the Swatches palette.
Six CMYK-defined colors appear in the default Swatches palette: cyan, magenta, yellow,
red, green, and blue.
To change the swatches that appear by default in new documents, edit the Swatches
palette when no documents are open.
