PDF Text Color

[nLz00]

Hi, i have problems setting up text colors. The preview for PDF shows colored text, the actual output not.

tests in a fresh editor:

[blue]#*BLAU*# +
[yellow]#*GELB*# +
[red]*ROT*

For pdf theming you should define a asciidoctor-pdf theme and colors you want to use. Please check https://discuss.asciidoctor.org/Color-for-Text-td7509.html

I really dont know how to do this. I cant find a *.yml file in which it could find place. Further help appreciated.

Please ask on https://discuss.asciidoctor.org/ since it is Asciidoctor specific question

My settings cannot freely set the color for a specific WORD. I can only set it according to the defined blocks, such as Header1, Header2, Header3 and so on.

Create theme file

custom-color-theme.yml

# FOR Asciidoctor-PDF 2.x
extends: default-with-font-fallbacks

# Set the base text color
base_font_color: #333333

heading:
# Color for H1 headings
  h1_font_color: #1a73e8
# Color for H2 headings  
  h2_font_color: #1a73e8
# Color for H3 headings  
  h3_font_color: #1a73e8
# Color for links  
link:
  font_color: #0000ee
# Color for literal text or code
literal:
  font_color: #d63384
