I want to convert RGB color code to Ral color code

Does anybody know the key how to convert RGB code to Ral or European color standard code (E14-31 ...blue)?

Hi Michael,

Did you discover how to convert RGB code to Ral code? Please, if you don't mind, could you tell it to me?

Thanks for all.

There is probably an easier way, but in the past (converting RGB images to embroidery thread colours) I scanned a colour chart, then used the colour blocks to set up a custom pallette in Photoshop, then told photoshop to convert the image to the custom pallette. Alternatively, scan the RAL colours and determine manually which has RGB values closest to yours.

Does the RAL color code indicate only color or does it indicate color and degree of gloss (ie; gloss, semi gloss, flat etc....)
thanks
