About gradients
A gradient is a graduated blend between two or more colors or between two tints of the same color. The output device
you use affects how gradients color-separate.
Gradients can include Paper, process colors, spot colors, or mixed ink colors using any color mode. Gradients are
defined by a series of color stops in the gradient bar. A stop is the point at which a gradient changes from one color
to the next, and is identified by a color square under the gradient bar. By default, a gradient starts with two colors
and a midpoint at 50%.
Note: When you create a gradient using colors of different modes and then print or color separate the gradient, all colors
are converted to CMYK process colors. Because of the color mode change, colors may shift. For best results, specify
gradients using CMYK colors.

This isn’t really your fault – it happens a LOT – studies show 7 out of 10 visitors to any site disap
Dear, Eric here with a quick thought about your website manymanuals.pl Owner! I’m on the internet a lot and I look at a lot of business websites. Like yours, many of them have great content. But all too often, they come up short when it comes to engaging and connecting with anyone who visits. I get it – it’s hard. Studies show 7 out of 10 people who land on a site, abandon it in moments without leaving even a trace. You got the eyeball, but nothing else. Here’s a solution for y
