Query results

This query returns a list of ink information. For each ink:
const char * sName;
Name of color, exactly as it appears on Colors palette
PMBool bPrintInk;
false for off
true for on (print the specified ink)
const char * sAngle;
Screen angle for specified ink (from 0.0 to 360.0)
const char * sRuling;

Ink names returned. PageMaker returns inks in the order in which they appear in the Print Color dialog box: the four process colors first, then high-fidelity inks (if any), followed by any remaining inks, in alphabetic order. As in the scroll list, PageMaker does not include tints or the colors Black, Paper, and Registration.
