DynaPDFMBS.CaretAnnotAnsi(PosX as Double, PosY as Double, Width as Double, Height as Double, ColorValue as UInt32, ColorSpace as Integer, Author as string, Subject as string, Content as string) as Integer
Function:
Creates a caret annotation.
Notes:
This type of annotation is typically used to mark a position on a page where a user should add or edit text.
If the coordinate system is bottom-up the point PosX, PosY defines the lower left corner of the bounding rectangle. If the coordinate system is top-down it defines the upper left corner.
This annotation type has an associated PopUp annotation that displays the string Content in a floating window. The initial window state of the associated PopUp annotation is closed by default but the state can be changed with SetAnnotOpenState if necessary.
If the function succeeds the return value is the annotation handle, a value greater or equal zero. If the function fails the return value is a negative error code.

DynaPDFMBS.ChangeSeparationColor(CSHandle as UInt32, NewColor as UInt32, AlternateExtColorSpace as Integer, AltHandle as Integer = -1) as boolean
Function:
The function changes the color of a separation color space.

| method | DynaPDF | MBS DynaPDF Plugin | 13.4 | Yes | Yes | Yes | Yes | No |
Example:
// your instance

call pdf.SetfillColor(255) // 100% of the separation color test
call pdf.DrawCircle(193,389,66, pdf.kfmFill)
// change it to red
call pdf.ChangeSeparationColor(ColorSpaceHandle, 255, DynaPDFMBS.kcsDeviceRGB, -1)
