<div class="" style="word-wrap:break-word; line-break:after-white-space">I have recently completed a book project in which I extensively used figures in pstricks and in particular in pst-solides3D, gleefully putting in lots of colors. Now I am told by my
publisher that they want the book in monochrome (color adds way too much to the production costs for a printed book).
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">When I tried to put a monochrome option in my document style command (\documentstyle[11pt,monochrome]{book}) pstricks just ignored it.</div>
<div class="">Then the tech team at the publisher suggested modifications to my color definitions (in a colormacros.sty file); with these, the plain pstricks figures came out monochrome, but the pst-solides3D still insists on some colors. This may be simply
because the particular colors were not covered in the redefinitions provided by the tech team. But it would be much more convenient if I could just call a monochrome type option for pstricks in the preamble. Is such a thing possible, and if so how do I do
it?</div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">I initially sent this question to the Tex on Mac OS X list; Luis Sequeira suggested this list; Herb Schulz gave me something he found in the pstricks documentation; I am not conversant with this kind of definition but I copied it into my preamble
and tried running it (without the nocolor option in the documentstyle declaration); the net effect was that everything came out colored.</div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">I attach my “master” file with the full preamble, which then calls individual chapters etc. Herb’s suggested insert (commented out) is the second “paragraph” of the file, and the various pstricks calls are the third paragraph. Toward the end
of the seventh paragraph (starting with \usepackage{historymacros}) has two uncommented attempts to call the color-defining macro (colormacrosOld is my original macro file);</div>
<div class="">the colormacros call at the end (not commented out) is to the file modified according to my publisher’s tech staff suggestion. I attach that file as well.</div>
