...

RecordSize (4 bytes): A 32-bit unsigned integer that defines the number of WORD structures, defined in [MS-DTYP] section 2.2.61, in this record.

RecordFunction (2 bytes): A 16-bit unsigned integer that defines the record type. The lower byte MUST match the lower byte of the RecordType Enumeration (section 2.1.1.1) table value META_ESCAPE.

EscapeFunction (2 bytes): A 16-bit unsigned integer that defines the escape function. The value MUST be 0x0005 (GETCOLORTABLE) from the MetafileEscapes Enumeration (section 2.1.1.17).

ByteCount (2 bytes): A 16-bit unsigned integer that specifies the size, in bytes, of the record data that follows.

Start (2 bytes): A 16-bit unsigned integer that defines the offset from the beginning of the record to the start of the color table data in the ColorTable field.

ColorTableBuffer (variable): A buffer containing the color table that is obtained from the printer driver, which is not required to be contiguous with the static part of the record.
