Actually color has been a feature of the PostScript language since its beginning, and the use of rgb and hsb color specifications is described in the PSLRM. Look up the operators currenthsbcolor, currentrgbcolor, sethsbcolor, and setrgbcolor for more information. The recently announced Level 2 adds support for additional color models, notably CMYK and some flavor of CIE. This will be documented in the 2nd edition of the PSLRM, which is supposed to be published in mid-December, I believe.
