So I'm using Adobe Illustrator and I've got three colors, white, and two different shades of gray. when I make a mask with all three colors it turns out great, but when I put the new graphic in front of a white background it doesn't show up even though there's gray in the art. Even when I print the art, it all prints white... Does anyone know how to make sure the grays still show up?
