Hi Regina --

I saw that you had already made some changes yesterday  re i118191

 https://issues.apache.org/ooo/show_bug.cgi?id=118191

I have not investigated color renderings in AOO at all in terms of values,
but my first thought is we should be consistent across modules on how this
is done. RGB vs HTML?
