Red and blue are defaults, for other colors you have to define a color table

#!/usr/bin/perl
use strict;
use RTF::Writer;

my $output = 'c:/temp/colortext.rtf'; 
my $rtf = RTF::Writer->new_to_file($output);
$rtf->prolog( 
  'title' => "Color Test", 
  'colors' => [ 
    undef, 
    [255,0,0],   # 1-red
    [0,255,0],   # 2-green
    [0,0,255],   # 3-blue
    [255,128,0], # 4-orange
   ],
);
$rtf->paragraph( \'\cf1',"This is Red" );
$rtf->paragraph( \'\cf2',"This is Green" );
$rtf->paragraph( \'\cf3',"This is Blue" );
$rtf->paragraph( \'\cf4',"This is Orange" );
$rtf->close;
