I'm sure there is a way to do it but I can't figure it out. If you want to change your bitmap into a single colour scale, like greyscale but to a custom colour that you specify. I have created monotone bitmaps by converting them to greyscale then back to full-colour and tuning the RGB values go get the apporoximate colour I'm looking for. But I'm trying to get the bitmaps to match other artwork so I need the color to be exact.

Any Idea's?

Photopaint.......>image................>colour mode...................>duotone............(it usually defaults to Pantone Process Black so double click) then choose your colour from the provided normal array of pallettes/models/mixers.........then customise further with the diagonal line in the graph to the right.

Just a note-- you can also access conversion to duotone (mono, tri, etc.) directly from within CorelDraw too. It's non-destructive too -- you can continue to edit and change the colour after you change to this mode.
