Annoying GIMP issue (fill bucket with a circle-slash icon on the cursor) Just to round things off well, why not take your answer (which you basically edited into your question), edit it into this not-quite-an-answer, then accept it. That way the question shows as answered, which it is. |

How do you create an artistic border? Unfortunately, this is much too vague to be answerable. See the FAQ for guidelines on how to ask a good question. |

How to convert document Illustrator file to only one color? (eg. Green) Sorry for the delay. The shop's been kinda busy... The dot gain you pick generally depends on how the piece will be printed, but that really only applies to screens (the "dots" in "dot gain"), not to 100% coverage. In this particular case it doesn't make a difference; the provider will simply use 100% coverage of whatever the actual print color is. |

How to convert document Illustrator file to only one color? (eg. Green) In Acrobat, open the dialog Tools > Print Production > Convert Colors there is a checkbox under "Output Intent" labeled "Convert Colors to Output Intent." Choosing the appropriate Dot Gain profile will create a PDF with a black plate only. |
