SeparationColorSpace Class Documentation

class SeparationColorSpace : ColorSpace

Namespace:Datalogics::PDFL

Inherits from:
ColorSpace

Detailed Description

Defines the use of additional named colorants in a PDF document.

Colorants in a separation color space are also sometimes referred to as spot colorants. The device displaying or printing the PDF document will supply an appropriate color based on the colorant included in the separation color space.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

SeparationColorSpace

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

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.
