    One document, multiple color schemes

    Geert DD Community Member

      A search for “color schemes”, “recoloring” or “layer comps” doesn't yield any results in the InDesign (CS3) help files. I am looking for a easy way to present one document, for example a newsletter or letterhead, in multiple color schemes.

       

      Duplicating an artwork layer, then manually picking new colors gives allows you to toggle different color schemes; however, it is far from ideal when you need to rearrange objects.

       

      Using object styles only goes so far too. You can change colors globally, but can you store multiple color schemes? A color scheme would consist out of a collection of object styles to be invoked all at once.

       

      How would you deal with this situation? Thanks.
