Create a [Backlit] application when you want your image to be illuminated from behind. A [Backlit] application is printed on the side of the media that is going to be illuminated.
When you select the [Effect type] [Backlit] a white layer will automatically be added to the image to ensure color vibrancy and color density.
Open the design that you have created in Adobe Photoshop or Adobe Illustrator.
Open the Arizona Xpert Extensions and select [Effect type] - [Backlit].
Select the [Opacity].
When you want little light to pass through the image, select [Opacity] - [High].
When you want more light to pass through the image, select [Opacity] - [Low] or [Opacity] - [Medium]. When you compare the preview of the high-opacity image above with the low-opacity image below, you can see that the low-opacity image is brighter.
