Reviewing the Foil Used Color palette
The Foils Used Color palette shows any foil colors used in the selection. For example, if you
bring a job into the posterize program that has multiple vinyl colors and some shapes filled
with foil colors, the foil colors appear in the Foils Used Color palette. You must reselect any foils
in the Foil Used Color palette if you still want them in the job. If you do not reselect them, they
will not be used.
The first time you use a foil color, it does not immediately appear in the Foil Used Color palette.
For example, if the first time you posterize a job you select a green foil, the green Foil Color
sample will be outlined but there will not be a green color sample in the Foil Used Color palette.
The next time you posterize the job, there will be a green color sample in the Foils Used Color
palette.
Note: You cannot reposterize a vinyl-only job. Once it is posterized, all vinyl shapes become
filled shapes, and filled shapes cannot be posterized.
Posterizing a job
To posterize a job

4 Choose a color in the Vinyl Color palette for the selected shapes.

want to have them reused.
