A documentation of my workflow for making multicolor crosshatching plots.

We will separate the different color channels and save them as individual files, so that we will be able to plothatch them individually.

Open your file in Krita
Change color space to CMYK
1. Image > Convert Image Color Space
2. Choose Model: CMYK / Alpha
3. Click OK
Separate image
1. Image > Separate Image
2. Click OK
Invert all layers. For each of the layers:
1. Go to a layer and press ctr+I
Save layers 'cyan', 'yellow', 'magenta' and 'black' separately. For each of the layers:
1. Toggle visibility for only one of these layers
2. Save (ctr+shft+S)
Fix opacity. For each of the new images:
1. Open the image with the Windows default images app
2. Three dots > Change image size
3. Save image (overwrite it)
