Filling images
After you have created and edited an image, you will need to assign a fill to the image. If the
image is not filled, it will not be printable and will be treated as a template.
To fill an image you’ll need to choose the:
♦
color type
♦
vinyl color
♦
halftone type
♦
lines per inch
To specify these characteristics, you’ll use the Image Fill dialog box. To access the Image Fill
dialog box you can click the Image Fill tool or the Fill tool.
If the objects to be filled are a combination of objects and/or
text and images, then a message box will appear alerting the
user that they have a mixed selection. Choose which object to
fill. You can only fill one type of object at a time.
