X Offset and Y Offset
Specifies the distance you want the drop shadow to be offset from the object.
Blur
Specifies the distance from the edge of the shadow where you want any blurring to occur. Illustrator creates a
transparent raster object to simulate the blur.
Color
Specifies a color for the shadow.
Darkness
Specifies the percentage of black you want added for the drop shadow. In a CMYK document, a value of
100%, used with a selected object that contains a fill or stroke color other than black, creates a multicolored black
shadow. A value of 100% used with a selected object that contains only a black fill or stroke creates a 100% black
shadow. A value of 0% creates a drop shadow the color of the selected object.
Create Separate Shadows (Drop Shadow filter only)
Places each shadow directly behind the object to which the
shadow is applied. Otherwise, the shadows are all placed together behind the bottommost selected object.

To apply an inner or outer glow
1
Select an object or group (or target a layer in the Layers palette).
2
Choose Effect > Stylize > Inner Glow or Effect > Stylize > Outer Glow.
3
Click the color preview square next to the blending mode menu to specify a color for the glow.

Set additional options (see “Inner and Outer Glow options” on page 435), and click OK.
When you expand an object that uses an inner-glow effect, the inner glow reveals itself as an opacity mask; if you
expand an object that uses an outer glow, the outer glow becomes a transparent raster object.
