Post subject:  Calculating colours

We have a new CI and I have a list of colours which we can use. I have the Pantone code, CMYK percent and RGB value for the "100%" colour. We can then use 80%, 70%, 60%, 50% and 20% of those colours.

The problem is, there is no definition of what those values are in RGB etc. So the question is, given a colour of say 0, 99, 46 RGB (174, 100, 38 HSV or 1, 0, 0.535, 0.612 CMYK), how do I work out the percentages?

Thanks. That looks useful.

Luckily I had Illustrator on my iMac... I found the following tutorial, which was very helpful.
