Scitex CT images typically represent 4 colors.
A colored pixel is up to 128 bits in size (16 separations). Separations 1 through 4 are for CMYK colors. Separations from 5 to 16 are reserved in case the format of these images is expanded in the future.
The data in the first separation is followed by the data in the second separation and so with the rest
