Module: HexaPDF::Content::ColorSpace

Defined in:
lib/hexapdf/content/color_space.rb

Overview

This module contains the color space implementations.

General Information

The PDF specification defines several color spaces. Probably the most used ones are the device color spaces DeviceRGB, DeviceCMYK and DeviceGray. However, there are several others. For example, patterns are also implemented via color spaces.

HexaPDF provides implementations for the most common color spaces. Additional ones can easily be added. After implementing one it just has to be registered on the global configuration object under the ‘color_space.map’ key.

Color space implementations are currently used so that different colors can be distinguished and to provide better error handling.

Color Space Implementations

A color space implementation consists of two classes: one for the color space and one for its colors.

The class for the color space needs to respond to the following methods:

#initialize(definition)

Creates the color space using the given array with the color space definition. The first item in the array is always the color space family, the other items are color space specific.

#family

Returns the PDF name of the color space family this color space belongs to.

#definition

Returns the color space definition as array or symbol.

#default_color

Returns the default color for this color space.

#color(*args)

Returns the color corresponding to the given arguments which may be normalized to conform to the PDF spec. The number and types of the arguments differ from one color space to another.

#prenormalized_color(*args)

Returns the color corresponding to the given arguments without applying value normalization. The number and types of the arguments differ from one color space to another.

The class representing a color in the color space needs to respond to the following methods:

#color_space

Returns the associated color space object.

#components

Returns an array of components that uniquely identifies this color within the color space.

Class Method Details

.device_color_from_specification(*spec) ⇒ Object

:call-seq:

ColorSpace.device_color_from_specification(gray)           => color
ColorSpace.device_color_from_specification(r, g, b)        => color
ColorSpace.device_color_from_specification(c, m, y, k)     => color
ColorSpace.device_color_from_specification(string)         => color
ColorSpace.device_color_from_specification(array)          => color

Creates a device color object from the given color specification.

There are several ways to define the color that should be used:

  • A single numeric argument specifies a gray color (see DeviceGray::Color).

  • Three numeric arguments specify an RGB color (see DeviceRGB::Color).

  • A string in the format “RRGGBB” where “RR” is the hexadecimal number for the red, “GG” for the green and “BB” for the blue color value also specifies an RGB color.

  • As does a string in the format “RGB” where “RR”, “GG” and “BB” would be used as the hexadecimal numbers for the red, green and blue color values of an RGB color.

  • Any other string is treated as a CSS Color Module Level 3 color name, see www.w3.org/TR/css-color-3/#svg-color.

  • Four numeric arguments specify a CMYK color (see DeviceCMYK::Color).

  • An array is treated as if its items were specified separately as arguments.

Note that it makes a difference whether integer or float values are used because the given values are first normalized (expected range by the PDF specification is 0.0 - 1.0) - see DeviceGray#color, DeviceRGB#color and DeviceCMYK#color for details.

For examples see HexaPDF::Content::Canvas#stroke_color.
