Color Data

• There are "Number of Pages" * "Number of Colors per Page" colors, each represented using 2 bytes
• From leftmost bit to rightmost bit:
  • The first bit is a mask (alpha?)
  • The next 5 bits are an unsigned integer for Blue
  • The next 5 bits are an unsigned integer for Green
  • The next 5 bits are an unsigned integer for Red
  • In other words: ABBBBBGG GGGRRRRR (A = Mask, B = Blue, G = Green, R = Red)
