SetFillColor(Byte,Byte,Byte,Byte) Method
 
            
                In This Topic
            
            Sets the fill color used by all subsequent filling operations, like the 
GdPicturePDF.DrawRectangle method. The initial value is set to black. 
This method uses the CMYK color space for specifying the required color.
The fill color parameter is one of the graphics state parameters. These parameters are initialized to their default values at the beginning of each page (see PDF Reference, Section "Graphics State").

            Return Value
A member of the GdPictureStatus enumeration. If the method has been successfully followed, then the return value is GdPictureStatus.OK. 
We strongly recommend always checking this status first.
