Specifying a color using numeric values

In the Color Picker, you can select a color in any of the color models by specifying numeric values for each color component.

To specify colors using numeric values:

Do one of the following:

• In CMYK color mode, specify each component value as a percentage of cyan, magenta, yellow, and black.
• In RGB color mode (this is the mode your monitor uses), specify component values from 0 to 255 (0 is black, and 255 is the pure color).
• In HSB color mode, specify saturation and brightness as percentages; specify hue as an angle, from 0 to 360°, that corresponds to a location on the color wheel. (See Color modes and models for information on the color wheel.)
