Hi DiamondDave,

Each application will have its own provisions for what colours may or may not be available. As for:
Quote:
I want more than the RGB spectrum of colors. I want to be able to get colors like "Gold", "Silver" and others without messing with the "Hue" to make custom colors.
The RGB spectrum covers every color possible. There are many versions of gold and silver, which are merely variations of yellow and grey, respectively. AFAIK there is no standard application for Windows, from any software maker, that will give you a simple selection box of some kind for any and every possible colour imaginable. Such a box would need over 16 million options.

FWIW, attached is an Excel spreadhseet containing conversions for Pantone colours to CMYK & RGB. (You'll need the analysis toolpack installed to see the RGB values).
Attached Files
File Type: xls Pantone.xls (304.0 KB, 16 views)
