CMCreateTransformExt function

The CMCreateTransformExt ANSI function creates a color transform that maps from an input LOGCOLORSPACE to an optional target space and then to an output device, using a set of flags that define how the transform should be created.

Syntax

HCMTRANSFORM WINAPI CMCreateTransformExt(
   LPLOGCOLORSPACEA lpColorSpace,
   LPDEVCHARACTER   lpDevCharacter,
   LPDEVCHARACTER   lpTargetDevCharacter,
   DWORD            dwFlags
);

Parameters

  • lpColorSpace
    Pointer to an input logical color space structure.

  • lpDevCharacter
    Pointer to a memory-mapped device profile.

  • lpTargetDevCharacter
    Pointer to a memory-mapped target profile.

  • dwFlags
    Specifies flags to used control creation of the transform. For details, see CMM Transform Creation Flags.

Return value

If this function succeeds, the return value is a color transform in the range 256 to 65,535. Since only the low WORD of the transform is retained, valid transforms cannot exceed this range.

If this function fails, the return value is an error code having a value less than 256. When the return value is less than 256, signaling an error, the CMM should use SetLastError to set the last error to a valid error value as defined in Winerror.h.
