GetPS2ColorRenderingDictionary

[This is preliminary documentation and subject to change.]

The GetPS2ColorRenderingDictionary function retrieves the PostScript Level 2 color rendering dictionary from the specified profile.

BOOL WINAPI GetPS2ColorRenderingDictionary(
  HPROFILE hProfile,
  DWORD dwIntent,
  PBYTE pBuffer,
  PDWORD pcbSize,
  PBOOL pbBinary
);
 

Parameters

hProfile

Specifies a handle to the profile in question.

dwIntent

Specifies the desired rendering intent for the color rendering dictionary. Valid values are:

INTENT_PERCEPTUAL
INTENT_SATURATION
INTENT_RELATIVE_COLORIMETRIC
INTENT_ABSOLUTE_COLORIMETRIC
 

For more information, see Rendering Intents.

pBuffer

Pointer to a buffer in which the color rendering dictionary is to be placed. If the pBuffer pointer is set to NULL, the required buffer size is returned in *pcbSize.

pcbSize

Pointer to a variable containing the size of the buffer in bytes. On return, the variable contains the number of bytes actually copied.

pbBinary

Pointer to a Boolean variable. If TRUE, the color rendering dictionary could be copied in binary form. If FALSE, the dictionary will be encoded in ASCII85 form. On return, this Boolean variable indicates whether the dictionary was actually binary (TRUE) or ASCII85 (FALSE).

Return Values

If this function succeeds, the return value is TRUE. It also returns TRUE if the pBuffer parameter is NULL and the size required for the buffer is copied into pcbSize.

If this function fails, the return value is FALSE.

Remarks

If the dictionary is not available in the profile, the GetPS2ColorRenderingDictionary function builds one using the profile contents. This dictionary can then be used as the operand for the PostScript Level 2 setcolorrendering operator.
