Setting colorspace?

[JPustkuchen]

Hello and thanks a lot for this great project.

We're having color problems which seem to be based on the PDF colorspace. We'd like to set Adobe RGB 1998 (AdobeRGB1998) which should work cleanly for all printers and devices but could not find a way to do that. Can someone help us please?

Is there any way to set a default colorspace / color scheme?

As of this writing no, but this would be a helpful addition.

Thanks a lot, yes indeed. No open source PDF library yet seems to cover that. But it's a big problem because without proper color profiles the users device decides how to output colors and we're having cases where the results are horrible!

As workaround for other users with the same problem, here's our workaround: We're using a base PDF which we are now manipulating with Zend_Pdf (Zend Framework). This way the colorspace of the document is being kept.
