The following PostScript code prints the text ‘Transparent Data’ in 30 point Hel-
vetica.
Convert the code into hexadecimal ASCII format, and add the Transparency
Lead-in and Trailer Strings. The converted data should look like this:
The following rules apply to the data between the Transparency Lead-in and trail-
er Strings:
• Spaces and control codes are ignored.
• All other characters except ‘0’ - ‘9’, ‘A’ - ‘F’, and ‘a’ - ‘f’ will cause a Hex Trans-
parency Error condition.
