EkimEnaid Posted January 23, 2022 Share Posted January 23, 2022 I'm writing a book, and since the laocl Printing Company does not us or is familiar with Affinity products, they gave me the specs I needed. I was told I needed to make the text all black and the CMYK Color Sliders: C = 0 M = 0 Y = 0 K = 100 I had already finished the book and was in the process of making the CMYK changes. However, when I change to C =0, M = 0, Y = 0 and K = 100 and then save the document, the CMYK settings do not save. Even before saving, I found that after I make the change and then check, the settings and check, the setting revert back. The first image is CMYK settings changed as needed above. The second image is after I saved the document or go back and look with the settings not saved. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wosven Posted January 23, 2022 Share Posted January 23, 2022 Hi @EkimEnaid You need to use color swatches to save your color, or simply this one: Use it in your paragraph and character styles settings, and apply it for the text that don't use styles.

EkimEnaid Posted January 23, 2022 Author Share Posted January 23, 2022 Thanks Wosven' I did what you said but have an another question. I found where to change the text color swatches but was unable to find "Use it in your paragraph" to change the character styles settings. Also, please see questions in below Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wosven Posted January 23, 2022 Share Posted January 23, 2022 You need to use styles to get constistency in your text. For paragraph and characters. This way, when modifying one setting of your(s) style(s), all you document is modified. For modifying color in a paragraph text style: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EkimEnaid Posted January 23, 2022 Author Share Posted January 23, 2022 Am I able to set this up in Master to apply to the entire doc? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Old Bruce Posted January 23, 2022 Share Posted January 23, 2022 17 minutes ago, EkimEnaid said: Am I able to set this up in Master to apply to the entire doc? Make a Paragraph style and name it First. Apply it to some paragraphs. Now it is permanently applied to those paragraphs. You can go and change things in First and the changes will appear in those paragraphs, and only those paragraphs. Anywhere and everywhere in the document.

I have never mastered color management, period, so I cannot help with that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
