Constructor & Destructor Documentation

SeparationColorSpace

SeparationColorSpace(Pagepage, Inkink)

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

SeparationColorSpace(StringseparationName, ColorSpacealternate, FunctiontintTransform)

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.

getAlternate

ColorSpacegetAlternate()

Returns:

The alternate color space.

The alternate color space. The alternate color space can be any device or CIE-based color space but not another special color space (Pattern, Indexed, Separation, or DeviceN).

getFunction

FunctiongetFunction()

Returns:

Function

A 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.

getName

StringgetName()

Returns:

String

The name of the color space. A named color space may be named something like DeviceRGB. More complicated color spaces may have a name like Indexed or ICCBased.

getNumComponents

intgetNumComponents()

Returns:

The number of color components.

The number of components in the color space. For example, DeviceGray has 1 component, DeviceRGB has 3, and DeviceCMYK has 4.

getPDFObject

PDFObjectgetPDFObject()

Returns:

The PDFObject associated with the color space.

Get the PDFObject associated with the color space. This may be a PDFName, PDFDict, PDFStream, or PDFArray.

getSeparationName

StringgetSeparationName()

Returns:

The separation colorant name as a string.

The name of the colorant that the Separation space is intended to represent, or All, or None.

getSeparationNameArray

byte[]getSeparationNameArray()

Returns:

A byte array containing the raw separation name.

The name of the colorant as a byte array. The name of the colorant that the Separation space is intended to represent, or All, or None. This property is suitable for retrieving the name when the SeparationName cannot be retrieved as a string (for example, when the name contains non-Unicode characters).

sameTypeEquals

booleansameTypeEquals(ColorSpaceother)

Parameters

other: ColorSpace

Returns:

boolean

toString

StringtoString()

Returns:

A string describing this ColorSpace.

Convert a ColorSpace to a string representation.
