width: Type: System.Single
Width of new bitmap (in pixels).

Pixel format of new bitmap. If pixel format is not indexed, palette is ignored.

Note
This palette object is binded to bitmap, not copied. It means that if you later change anything in palette object, changes will be reflected in the palette of bitmap.

is CMYK image is filled with white color
is indexed image has color of the first palette entry
