OCAocacolor

Chose one of the standard OCA colors or synonyms:

• BLUE
• RED
• MAGENTA (or PINK)
• GREEN
• CYAN (or TURQ)
• YELLOW
• BLACK
• BROWN
• MUSTARD
• DARKBLUE (or DBLUE)
• DARKGREEN (or DGREEN)
• DARKTURQ (DTURQ, or DCYAN, or DARKCYAN)
• ORANGE
• PURPLE
• GRAY
• NONE
• DEFAULT

Note: In some printer publications, the color turquoise (TURQ) is called cyan, and the color pink (PINK) is called magenta.

RGBrvalue gvalue bvalue

Three RGB integer values are used. The first (rvalue) represents a value for red, the second (gvalue) represents a value for green, and the third (bvalue) represents a value for blue. Each of the three integer values may be specified as a percentage from 0 to 100.

Note: An RGB specification of 0/0/0 is black. An RGB specification of 100/100/100 is white. Any other value is a color somewhere between black and white, depending on the output device.

HIGHLIGHThvalue [COVERAGEcvalue] [BLACKbvalue]

Indicates the highlight color model. Highlight colors are device dependent.

You can use an integer within the range of 0 to 65,535 for the hvalue.

Note: An hvalue of 0 indicates that there is no default value defined; therefore, the default color of the presentation device is used.

COVERAGE indicates the amount of coverage of the highlight color to be used. You can use an integer within the range of 0 to 100 for the cvalue. If less than 100 percent is specified, the remaining coverage is achieved with the color of the medium.

Note: Fractional values are ignored. If COVERAGE is not specified, a value of 100 is used as a default.

BLACK indicates the percentage of black to be added to the highlight color. You can use an integer within the range of 0 to 100 for the bvalue. The amount of black shading applied depends on the COVERAGE percentage, which is applied first. If less than 100 percent is specified, the remaining coverage is achieved with black.

Note: If BLACK is not specified, a value of 0 is used as a default.

CMYKcvalue mvalue yvalue kvalue

Defines the cyan/magenta/yellow/black color model. cvalue specifies the cyan value. mvalue specifies the magenta value. yvalue specifies the yellow value. kvalue specifies the black value. You can use an integer percentage within the range of 0 to 100 for any of the CMYK values.

CIELAB Lvalue (−)c1value(−)c2value

Defines the CIELAB model. Use a range of 0.00 to 100.00 with Lvalue to specify the luminance value. Use signed integers from -127 to 127 with c1value and c2value to specify the chrominance differences.

Lvalue, c1value, c2value must be specified in this order. There are no defaults for the subvalues.

Note: Do not specify both an OCA color with the COLOR sub-parameter and an extended color model on the same FIELD or PRINTLINE command. The output is device dependent and may not be what you expect.
