I still think what you are trying to do doesn't make sense - but
maybe I am getting dense...
If I understand you correctly, you will need to write code that
parses the PDF page content stream, as well as iterating colorspace
resources and image resources. In addition, these routines will need
to be recursive, in order to handle any Form XObjects, Patterns, or
Type 3 CharProcs that they encounter.

Hi Leonard,
I had a newer post this morning with what I came to after some
work. Please look at that.
Further to that let's suppose: a document under examination can be
using any (valid) colorspace, or a combination of. If so, I have to
get this information on a page by page base and have the program
take some action depending on that information.
To that I also need any named colors (like Pantone) used besides
the normal base colors. This is what I refered originally -by name
- I only need the name of the color used. I don't have to know the
chromatic values of any color used on the other hand.

I guess I don't understand this. If I have a color specified as a
combination fo Cyan and Magenta - what is the "name" of that
color? Or what about Red + Green?
What about colorspaces like LAB or ICCBased?
What do you want to do with DeviceN?

Hi Leonard,
Thanks for comming back. What I need is the sum of all colors used
in the page and their names.
1. Is CMYK colorspace. Number is 4, the names "Cyan" "Magenta"
Yellow" Black".
2. Is RGB colorspace. Number is 3, names are "Red" "Green" "Blue".
3. Is CMYK plus Spot. Number is 4 + ? , names are ("C" "M" "Y" "K")
+ ?.
Does this makes sense?
Thanks

Do you want to know the colorspaces (RGB vs CMYK vs Spot) _OR_ are
you actually looking at specific color values ([0 0 1], [1 1 0 0],
etc.)??

Hi all,
I 've searched the forum and found a similar question posted a long
time ago but in different context as I understand it, so please
excuse me if a raise the same subject.
What I have to do is:
While a pdf document is open and a loop is counting to end of
number_of_pages, I have to run a certain action and I need to know
the total number of colors (RGB and/or CMYK plus Spot if used) in
this page.
This number defined as the sum of colors used by all elements on
the page, whether textual, graphic or images.
Also I need to know these colors by name reference (as a string list).
The sequence is repeating for each page and program flow depends on
this information.
Is it possible through PageResources class? Or any other procedural
way?
Thanks in advance
