HighCharts : Is it possible to customize the colors of individual series?

I am using HighCharts for a line graph report. In this specific report I have been asked to Customize the colours of each series. The series will always stay the same. So for example:

John series: Blue dashed line Mary series: Solid Red Line

Does anyone know how to accomplish this?

If you read the api here, you'll see the following text.

Serie

The actual series to append to the chart. In addition to the members listed below, any member of the plotOptions for that specific type of plot can be added to a series individually. For example, even though a general lineWidth is specified in plotOptions.series, an individual lineWidth can be specified for each series.

So you can add anything from plotOptions.

Demo:

series: [{
    name: 'serie1',
    data: [0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9],
    color: '#FFFF00',
    lineWidth: 4,
    id: 'serie1',
    step: true
}]

Options can be set separately for each series.

var chart = new Highcharts.Chart({
    chart: {
        renderTo: 'container'
    },
    xAxis: {
        type: 'datetime'
    },

    series: [{
        name: 'John',
        color: '#0066FF',
        dashStyle: 'ShortDash',
        data: [
            [Date.UTC(2010, 0, 1), 29.9],
            [Date.UTC(2010, 2, 1), 71.5],
            [Date.UTC(2010, 3, 1), 106.4]
        ]
    },{
        name: 'Mary',
        color: '#FF0000',
        data: [
            [Date.UTC(2010, 0, 1), 60.9],
            [Date.UTC(2010, 1, 1), 40.5],
            [Date.UTC(2010, 2, 1), 90.0],
            [Date.UTC(2010, 3, 1), 80.4]
        ]
    }]
});
