- Display the Enfocus Inspector. See Opening the Enfocus Inspector dialog
- Click .
- Select the object of which you want to change the transparency.
-
Do any of the following:
- To change the transparency, move the Alpha Fill or Alpha Stroke slider.
- If you make text transparent, you may want to select the Text knockout option. This option determines how overlapping characters are shown; if enabled, characters on top will overwrite ("knock out") the characters underneath in the area of overlap.
- To change the way in which the colors of the transparent object on top blend with the colors of underlying objects, add the required blending modes. Select one or more blending modes in the Available list and click the Add or Replace button to put them in the Selected Blending list. The RIP will apply the blending modes in the order as they appear in the Selected Blending list; if it cannot apply the blending mode which is on top of the list, it will try to apply the second one, and so on.
Note: For more information about blending modes, visit the Adobe Web site (www.adobe.com) or refer to the Help or documentation of your design application (Adobe InDesign, QuarkXPress,...).
