Change the printed background color

You can print the background color set in the Document Properties dialog box. Change the background color for only the frames to be printed by placing a colored object on the lowest layer of the Timeline being printed.

  1. Place a filled shape that covers the Stage on the lowest layer of the Timeline that will print.
  2. Select the shape and select Modify > Document. Select a color for the printing background.

    This action changes the entire document’s background color, including that of movie clips and loaded SWF files.

  3. Do one of the following:

    • To print that color as the document’s background, designate to print the frame in which you placed the shape.

    • To maintain a different background color for nonprinting frames, repeat steps 2 and 3. Then place the shape on the lowest layer of the Timeline, in all the frames that are not designated to print.
