Hi,<br />
<br />
I have some shapes in Illustrator CS4 that are semi-transparent and have the overlay blend mode applied (they are sitting over other shapes). I would like to have what appears on the screen to be converted to regular objects - i.e. without blend mode or transparency - as if they were drawn exactly like that, with those colors. Is there a way to do that? I tried to flatten transparency, but that seems to get rid of the blend mode or something, because it changed the appearance.<br />
<br />
Please let me know if I am being unclear. Basically I want to have what I am seeing without transparency or blend modes. I don't want to run into issues when printing.<br />
<br />
Thank you,<br />
<br />
Andrey

Convert transparency &amp; blend mode to regular colors/shapes

Photo and imaging software is used to edit and compose raster images; Adobe Photoshop, which dominates the market, has its own topic. Common actions include cropping, slicing, retouching, color replacement, masking and erasing. Other programs include Apple Photo, Corel PaintShop Pro, GIMP, Serif PhotoPlus, Pixlr, PhotoScape, Picasa and IrfanView.

Images and Photos

Illustration software is distinguished from photo-editing software in that the result is an original construction, rather than the manipulation of a photograph. Illustration software uses vector-based tools such that the content is stored digitally as resolution-independent mathematical formulae describing lines (open paths), shapes (closed paths), and color fills, strokes or gradients. Vector paths are constructed of anchor points and path segments. Illustration tools typically create precise lines, shapes and patterns with well-defined edges and are superb for working with complex constructions such as maps and typography.
