SUMMARY
Some applications represent their colors using CMYK (cyan, magenta, yellow, black) values. These values are typically represented as percentages. The following table provides the approximate conversion of the PowerPoint RGB values to the CMYK percentages. The table includes all the predefined Genigraphics colors as well as the standard VGA pure colors.

NOTE: PowerPoint 97 does not use the same color naming scheme as PowerPoint versions 4.0 and earlier do. In addition, PowerPoint 97 uses a scale of 0-255 instead of 0-65,535 for representing RGB values.
