Color Processing
Functions
Given these two color uses, page marking primitives and
color raster data, color processing must:
Convert color attributes to an internal representation
that can be poured through the page marking stencil
onto the destination via some logical operation.
Convert multiple-bit-per-pixel color raster to an internal
representation that can be merged into the destination
via some logical operation.
Color processing must have access to the following state
variables, which indicate the form and attributes by which
the two color groups are generated.
Halftone (rendering algorithm)
RGB gamma correction
Device-dependent color lookup tables for each of the
three primaries
Chapter 2 describes in more detail how color raster data is
specified.
