Use Visio drawings in presentations, documents, and publications

Recolored flowchart and background

Callout 1 To recolor a drawing, click it, click either Object (if the drawing is embedded or linked) or Picture (if you pasted the drawing as a picture) on the Format menu, and then click Recolor.
Callout 2 To add a colored background, click the drawing, and then click the Fill Color tool on the Formatting toolbar.

When you embed, link, or paste a drawing into a publication, the drawing automatically keeps the colors that you applied in Visio. You may want to change the original colors, however, so that the drawing's colors match the publication's color scheme.

The flowchart in the picture on the left was recolored to make it the same dark blue color as the text in the publication. A dark orange background was also added, the same color as the design element at the top of the brochure.
