Hi Monte,

I've already used this code from the Borland site
in the utility stack epsImportV03p.

Here, I convert the cmyk color in Adobe Ilustrator
files to a rgb string.

The cmyk color is in decimal format
as (0.75 0.5 0.25 0)
Notice that I don't use the whole code from
the Borland site, just the part I need.

Function CMYKtoRGB cmyk
  replace space with comma in cmyk
  put cmyk into cmykVar
 
  repeat 4
    put trunc(item 1 of cmykVar * 255) & "," after
cmykVar2
    delete item 1 of cmykVar
  end repeat
  if item 1 of cmykVar2 = 0 and item 2 of cmykVar2 = 0
and item 3 of cmykVar2 = 0
  then
    put item 4 of cmykVar2 into R
    put item 4 of cmykVar2 into G
    put item 4 of cmykVar2 into B
  else
    if (item 1 of cmykVar2 + item 4 of cmykVar2) < 255
    then put 255 - (item 1 of cmykVar2 + item 4 of
cmykVar2) into R
    else put 0 into R
    if (item 2 of cmykVar2 + item 4 of cmykVar2) < 255
    then put 255 - (item 2 of cmykVar2 + item 4 of
cmykVar2) into G
    else put 0 into G
    if (item 3 of cmykVar2 + item 4 of cmykVar2) < 255
    then put 255 - (item 3 of cmykVar2 + item 4 of
cmykVar2) into B
    else put 0 into B
  end if
  -- put R & "," & G & "," & B -- Uncomment for debug
  return R & "," & G & "," & B
end CMYKtoRGB
