Specifying background colors for pictures

To increase your design options with pictures, you can modify box color, picture color, and picture background color. See “Coloring and shading pictures” for more information.

  • For gray pixels, the picture color and picture background color are mixed.
  • If you specify different opacities for the picture color or picture background color, the colors will interact with each other and the box color.
Note: Grayscale and 1-bit images only: When you open a project from a previous version of QuarkXPress, the box color is mapped to the picture background color so the picture looks the same.
