RAL colours in Adobe Illustrator

Through direct co-operation between Photoshop and PageMaker and work in the Postscript format, Illustrator is often the first choice when working with vector graphics. The RAL colours can be output as full tones (decoration colours), RGB or CMYK optimizations, depending on what is desired at the time.
