Description

The function sets the current fill color as an array of float values.
The components of non-Lab color spaces must be in the range from 0 through 1. The *a and *b components of a Lab color space are typically in a range from -128 though 127. The *L component ranges from 0 through 100.
The number of components must match the number of components of the underlying color space. You can add an alpha value on the end.
For a grayscale color, please pass 3 times the gray level for a RGB color.

# Write some text
Variable setzen [$r; Wert:MBS("DynaPDF.WriteText"; $pdf; 100; $x; "Some cyan text")]
# now switch back to RGB
Variable setzen [$r; Wert:MBS( "DynaPDF.SetColorSpace"; $pdf; "DeviceRGB" )]

Draw line in a separation color:
