        LPLONG lnpColorComponents
);

Arguments:

Name Type Description
hColorSpace HIG_PDE_COLORSPACE A color space object.
lpnColorComponents LPLONG

Number of components in hColorSpace. 

  • DeviceGray, CalGray, Separation: Returns 1.
  • DeviceRGB, CalRGB: Returns 3.
  • DeviceCMYK, Lab: Returns 4.
  • DeviceN, ICCBased: Returns the number of components dependent on the specific color space object.
  • Indexed: Returns 1.
