Simple Color
Creates a fixed-size palette whose color specifications cannot be
modified.
? * r # U
# =
-3 - 3 planes, device CMY palette
1 - Single plane black and white palette
3 - 3 planes, device RGB palette
Configure Image Data (CID)
The CID command provides configuration information for palette creation
and raster data transmission in a single escape sequence by:
designating the color space of the default palette,
designating the size of the palette to be created,
providing data for the resolution of color-space specific values into
device-specific values,
designating the format of raster data, and
designating how primary components are combined to yield the raster
presentation.
? * v # W
[binary data]
# = Number of data bytes
Color Component One
Specifies the first component of any new color entry of the palette.
? * v # A
# = First component
Color Component Two
Specifies the second component of any new color entry of the palette.
? * v # B
# = Second component
Color Component Three
Specifies the third component of any new color entry of the palette.
? * v # C
# = Third component
Assign Color Index
Assigns the three current color components to the specified palette index
number.
? * v # I
# = Index number
