pdfSetDeviceNChannelMask

Set or clear one channel in the DeviceN channel mask.
void pdfSetDeviceNChannelMask(PDFHandle pdf, int channelIdx, int on)
This function sets one channel in the DeviceN channel mask to "on" or "off". The channelIdx argument specifies the channel number, and the on argument is non-zero for "on" or zero for "off".

The pdfGetDeviceNToRGBBitmap uses a mask that controls which color channels are included in the conversion. Channels that are "on" are included; channels that are "off" do not contribute to the output pixels. The channels are the same as reported by pdfGetDeviceNChannelName. The mask only affects the output of pdfGetDeviceNToRGBBitmap.

The DeviceN channel mask is automatically reset (all channels "on") on each call to pdfConvertPageToDeviceNImage, pdfConvertPageToDeviceNImageWithAlpha, pdfConvertRegionToDeviceNImage, or pdfConvertRegionToDeviceNImageWithAlpha.
