Hi Krau,
The location of the settings may vary based on the version of Word and which of the WordArt gallery choices you have selected for
layout.
Right click on the Word Art and use Format WordArt.
- In fill effects change to a two color gradient using Black and White.
- In line color select black or gray of your choice.
You may also need, depending on the gallery choice also use the Shadow tool to change the shadow color.
In Word 2007 you can also use the Theme color choices from the
WordArt Tools=>Format ribbon when you have the WordArt selected.
==============
I want to use shades of black and white only in word art>>
