Default custom color palette

I have the RGB codes for stampin up colors. I would like to make a custom color palette so I can print in SU colors. Can anyone give me detailed instructions on how to do this?

I can't give you detailed instructions on how to do this, but I'm not sure the RGB codes are going to help. Your computer monitor displays colors in RGB (red, green, blue), but color printers typically use CMYK (cyan, yellow, magenta, and black). Using the RGB color schemes ensures the color looks correct on your computer screen, but doesn't guarantee it will print correctly on a color printer. Not sure how to convert from RGB to CMYK, but I'm sure someone on here has encountered this issue.

Sorry I didn't give you the straightforward answer you're looking for!!

The attached is not my work, and I don't know where I found it but it was on here.

I keep it on my desktop so I can find easier.

I've also seen diff codes for diff colors, especially the Pumpkin Pie cuz I use that color a lot.
