This example shows the four attributes for specifying colors in IDF.

The PAGE is cream (BGCOLOR) with the string "original text". The string is partially covered by a GROUP with grey background (BGCOLOR) and a green border (BORDERCOLOR). This contains an ellipse drawn in red (COLOR) with a cyan FILL. Another string "New!" in yellow (COLOR) on magenta (FILL) is added on top of the GROUP.
