Change black color from mix to 0c 0m 0y 100k

Hi all,
a requirement of my printer is that black color should be pure 0c 0m 0y 100k, not any other 4 color mix. Using Acrobat XI Pro, is there a way to change this in an existing PDF? I found the color conversion dialog in the printing tools but I could not find out how to perform this task.
I would be very thankful for a short hint!
Robert
Edit: There is an option "enable CMYK grey scale to black". The text on the German UI is not clear to me - is that the option I need to use?

Hi, how would this be done? I do not see any corresponding destiller settings. These are Word documents, but Indesign documents might be involved as well.
In the preflight options I found this option to "Convert the registration color to black", which will probably help IF the destiller has printed the original black color as registration color. I do not know how to check if this is the case, however.

Why am I unable to change text color from black in LR5 book module?

Why am I unable to change text color from black in LR5 Book Module?

I'm assuming you clicked on the color patch besides the word <Character> to open the color picker window.
At the right side of this window there is a vertical bar that has 2 horizontal black lines at the bottom.
This is actually a slider. Pull it upwards with the color picker and color will appear in the window.

Unable to change text color (from Black)

For the next person who blunders into this and searches for an answer...
If you have a Condition Code whose decoration is a custom color, and you delete the color, the text goes to Black, and you cannot change the color of text bearing that CC - with local color override, or a Character Format that applies a color (I didn't try Paragraph format).
I am copying formatted content in from an older document that doesn't conform to current templates. I had deleted unused colors in the source, but not unused Condition Codes, one of which rode in with some text. What was controlled by the CC in the old doc is now controlled by a color Character format, except that when applied, the text stayed stubornly black (until I nuked the CC).

Dear FrameMaker 7.1/Unix user,
This does not surprise me. As long as the condition is applied and "Show Condition Formats" is active FrameMaker will show the Condition Color (now: Black) and not any underlying text colors.

Urgent HELP! how to resize a layout and change the color from black to white

Hey!!!
im in urgent help of someone to answer my questions. I have a huge Indesign exam monday and two of the questions are
-resizing a layout
-changing a color layout to black and white
I have done many porjects in Indesign but to be honest i don't know what they are refering but resizing a layout or changing the layout color to black and white. If any body can explain me this a little be I be so thankful!
Thanks,
Fiama Piccardo

I've decided to relent a little and give you a hint, so you can do some looking and figure this out for yourself. Everything you need for either of those tasks is accessed from the File menu...
And a further hint. Indesign does not have a black and white or grayscale working colorspace, so you never truly have a black and white layout, though all of the objects in the file may use only black ink. You can, however, output a PDF, in a couple of ways, that will convert your color file to one that uses only black.

JPEG, PNG, TGA, PDF changes hex color from PSD

I work for a company where the CEO is very into brand colors. He has the hex values of all the branded colors memorized. One of the branded colors is blue ( hex: 0039a6 ). Obviously, if he looks at my psd and samples a the color, it will display 0039a6.
However, whenever I save it out as a: jpg, tga, png, or pdf, the color's hex value will change to 1f419b. If he samples from one of those files, crisis! Wrong branded color!
I've made 2 layers and filled with with both colors and as far as I can tell, they are exactly the same to the eye, even if they're overlapping. So I just want to know why this happens so I can explain myself if he ever runs over to my desk.
Thanks!

Oh right, this is happening with Photoshop and Illustrator, which is why is didn't post on an individual programs forums. I forgot to add that to my previous post. Do you recommend that I post in both the Photoshop and Illustrator sections?
Edit: I did more tests. If I use the branded color 0039a6 in Illustrator and save it out as a png, tga, jpeg, pdf, and I then open one of those exported files in Photoshop, the hex value has changed.
If I use the branded color in Photoshop, exporting a png keeps the color as the correct hex value. JPG doesn't, which makes sense due to compression. So now the question is, why are the files I'm exporting from Illustrator and opening in Photoshop showing different hex values. You would assume that the pngs should be okay from both Photoshop and Illustrator?

Unable to change font color from white

In any new or previously saved Pages documents, I am unable to view the font. I know the text is there, because when highlighted, the text shows as white, but I am unable to change it to any other color. This has never been a problem before. Ideas? Would this have something to do with not updating to iWork'09?

Welcome to Apple Discussions
If you're not running the latest versions & Software Update says your software is up to date, make sure the applications are where the installer initially put them. The updaters are very picky. If the location is not where the updater is programmed to look or if the folder doesn't have the name the updater looks for, it will not work. The applications cannot be renamed or moved. They must be in the iWork '08 or iWork '09 folder in Applications. That iWork folder must be named iWork '08 or iWork '09. If it doesn't have the '08 or '09 Software Update won't find them & the updaters won't work.

How do I change the color of an object from a primary color to 2ndary (brown or black)

How would I change an object's color from red to black, I change the color from red to blue using the change to color effect, but for some reason I am unable to change it to brown or black or gray or another basic color

Neither brown or black are secondary colors. Well, brown could be considered a rather desaturated orange...
Anyway, that's neither here nor there.
You can use the Hue/Saturation effect. Help page on it here: After Effects Help | Color Correction effects
You simply pick a channel and adjust the channel range to only select the colors you wish.
Here's a tutorial: http://tv.adobe.com/watch/learn-photoshop-cc/shifting-colors-with-huesaturation/
Going to (or from) white or black is nearly impossible no matter what effect you're using and is not recommended.

Change Color from grid lines in Flash 2D Line Chart

Hi,
does anybody know how to change the color from the grid lines in 2D Line Chart?
The color is always black (000000), I will use gray (CCCCCC).
I can use a custom XML. Can you give me an example please???
Where can I read something about the possible XML-Tags in Custom XML for Charts?
Best regards
Simona

Simona,
anychart.com has XML reference you can use for the charting engine in APEX.
Try using custom XML and sticking this inside the grid > values tag:
<lines color='0xCCCCCC' />- Marco

PRINT PRODUCTION - CONVERT COLORS - CHANGING LINE WEIGHTS FROM 5 PT TO 1 PT - BIG PROBLEM

I've had three jobs in the past months from customers. Most are created in Indesign with a variety of graphics and illustraitions (Illustrator).
When I made a PDF and use the PRINT PRODUCTION ==> CONVERT COLORS ==. CONVERT COLORS TO OUTPUT INTENT and SELECT PRESERVE BLACK some of the lines change.
1) Today a customer usinged 5pt stroked curved lines created in Indesign in the background of a page. Acrobat saw them as 5 pt and when I used the workflow above changed them to 1 pt.
2) Another example: a circle was drawn in Illustrator, stroked with 7 pt stroke. The graphic imported into INDESIGN. I exported to PDF and ran the above workflow and it changed the stroke to 1.
3) Another example: A customer created a honeycomb in Illustrator with a .25 pt stroke, imported graphic into page in INDESIGN. I exported to PDF and ran the above workflow and it changed the stroke to 1.
I use this workflow to change all colors from graphics to CMYK.
Why is changing line weights?

Oops!! Not until now I discover that under 'Solutions' I happened to write 'untick' where it should be 'tick'! I.e, colors SHOULD be converted to RGB in order to circumvent the problems! I.e it runs havoc in v9 when CMYK colors are NOT converted to RGB! Don't know how I came to write the opposite, but probably I started out by describing the situation where the problems are seen rather than describing how to avoid them.
Equally strange is that nobody corrected me, but perhaps the mistake was so obvious? (But whether you see problems or not might depend on what fonts you use. So, under certain special circumstances, CMYK might actually work without these reported problems.)
I am also a bit surprised that others haven't reported the issue that the PDF version set in PDF job Options isn't respected when using 'Save As PDF' and Acrobat 9? (Or maybe someone has, but I have missed it.)

Assets panel styles, can i change the color of a style to be an exact color?

Assets panel > styles, can i change the color of a style
to be an exact color? for example, if i want to create a navbar
with the black and gray glass affect style, but i want to change
the color but keep the same style of shading. each style in the
assets panel has a default color, but i want to change the color
and keep the style. i did change the color a little bit by
adjusting the hue and saturation, but i can't seem to get an exact
match of the color i am trying to duplicate. any help is greatly
appreciated thanks

When a style is applied to any object, the Properties panel
at the bottom will reflect the attributes which are editable in
that applied style. The properties which can be edited are fill and
stroke colors also apart from adjusting the Hue and Saturation.
Gradient colors can be modified by changing the fill color.
The nodes in the gradient will change the color from blue to black
or any other intended color of change. If you know the color you
can either enter it as a 6 digit value or you can pick a color from
an existing object.
Hope it helps. Let me know I am missing you query
completely.

How can I change the color in this "pieces"

Hello guys, I'm new in the forum and I'm searching for help.
I'm using a free template that I downloaded from
the internet but I'm having a small problem.
When I put the logo that I want use in the template, the color is not the original one,
after some minutes trying to discover how I could change it to the original version of the logo, I found an option on "fill" with a color that I could change..
the problem is that when I change the color, all the logo changes in the same time, so I created 2 logos.. one of then only with the dark color and the other with the red color
so with this method I could change both colors on this "fill" option and all would be okai.
the problem is that both of the logos are changing in the same time.
I need to change the X to RED and the Moto to Black
Another problem that I have is : the little pieces of the logo that come all togheter, they are all black.. and i need to change it to the right color.
cause the text are in one color and the pieces are all black.

I did it, but i saw that Fill effect is a little "Shadow" behing the text... just for a small white line... I'm almost done with this intro, now I'm trying to find out how can I change the color from the X and MOTO
cause when I change the color, both changes, and this can't happen.
I need the X red and the Moto dark...
I made 2 compositions ... one with just the X X red.. and another with just Moto in dark color... but I don't know how to put this 2 compositions in 1 composition.

How do i do change the color(complete newbie)

i want to have a special button inside the applet which will automatically change the color from red to yellow,
HELP!!!
import java.awt.*;
import java.applet.Applet;
import java.awt.event.*;
public class Cookie extends Applet
    implements AdjustmentListener {
    private Scrollbar slider;
    private int sliderValue;
    public void init () {
        slider = new Scrollbar(Scrollbar.HORIZONTAL,0,1,0,51);
        add(slider);
        slider.addAdjustmentListener(this);
    public void paint (Graphics g) {
        showStatus("Scrollbar value is " + sliderValue);
          g.setColor(Color.black);
          g.drawRect(60, 60, 60, 100);
          g.setColor(Color.red);
          g.fillRect(60, 160-sliderValue, 60, sliderValue);
        g.fillRect(60, 60, 60, sliderValue);
    public void adjustmentValueChanged(AdjustmentEvent e) {
        sliderValue = slider.getValue();
        repaint();
}

This seems awfully familiar!
Add a boolean to keep track of color.
Your "special button" will have fire off an actionEvent, in actionPerformed set your boolean to true or false.
In the paint method check for true or false of the boolean and setColor accordingly.

Changing the colors of crop marks

Hi guys.
I´m printing a small job off a inkjet printer and the paper I´m using is black.
So, is there a way to change color of the corner crop marks?
Thank you.

I've never had need nor found a way to change the color from black myself, and I recall another question similar to yours in which the answerer stated it couldn't be done. Unfortunately the forum search feature seems to be broken at the moment.
You could, of course, create your own image that's a bit larger than your print size, complete with black background and white or colored crop marks, then paste your image over it as a second layer. I realize that's nowhere near as convenient as just ticking the checkbox in the print dialog.
Out of curiosity, what kind of inkjet/inks can print on black paper? Sounds like you could get some really cool effects, and I haven't heard of it before.

Can't change the color of text of links on my Welcome Page

I have a Welcome page with four links that happen to be text that I dragged over from my list of sites. I can change the text style and size but I cannot change the color from the default reddish brown.

To change the color of any hyperlinks, you need to select the link, go to the Hyperlink page, choose the Format option, and then select the color you want for Normal, Rollover, Visited and Disabled.
This should work.
You can also set the default colors and formats you want for all other entries on that same page.
