Constructor & Destructor Documentation

SeparationColorSpace(Page page, Ink ink)

Parameters

page: Page: Page, that contains an ink
ink: Ink: Represents an ink used in a page

Create a separation color space from page's Ink. If page doesn't have a separation color space with passed ink in it's resources, then linear grayscale tint transform function and CMYK as alternate colorspace will be used.

SeparationColorSpace(String separationName, ColorSpace alternate, Function tintTransform)

Parameters

separationName: String: the name of the colorant that the Separation space is intended to represent, or All, or None
alternate: ColorSpace: the alternate color space, which can be any device or CIE-based color space but not another special color space (Pattern, Indexed, Separation, or DeviceN).
tintTransform: Function: function, called with the tint value and returning the corresponding color component values. That is, the number of components and the interpretation of their values depend on the alternate color space.

Create a separation color space.

Returns:

byte[]

The name of the colorant that the Separation space is intended to represent, or All, or None NOTE: This property is suitable for retrieving the name when the SeparationName can't be retrieved as a string.

String toString()

Returns:

String

Convert a colorSpace to a string.
