Using colors with ConTeXt is easy:
== Choosing a color model ==
* RGB and CMYK are enabled by default. If you want only RGB or only CMYK color, use <tt>cmyk=no</tt> or <tt>rgb=no</tt>. Multitone colors see below.
* For spot colors, say spot=yes. To eliminate everything except spot colours, leaving a clean file for professional printing, accompany this with rgb=no,cmyk=no. See spot colours below for more details.
* Normally all colors are defined in RGB ''and'' CMYK and get converted if needed.
* Try the magic <cmd>showcolor</cmd><tt>[xxx]</tt>!
* You can define '''transparent''' colors through setting t, e.g. <tt>t=0.5</tt>. Beware, most PDF viewers and printshops can't handle PDF transparences!
* Use the color name like <tt>[color=blablue]</tt> in some <tt>\setup...</tt> command.
(See also "Color and Background" in the manual!)

Here's some \color[blablue]{blue text} inbetween!
