Inverting Colors
Illustrator provides two commands to invert colors, which changes the color to their op-
posite values on the color scale. The Invert Colors command allows you to invert multiple
nonglobal process colors in a selected object, while the Invert command allows you to in-
vert the fill or stroke color (global, nonglobal, or spot).
