How to create a "Custom Color" for highlighting? (Acrobat XI)

The numbers in the RGB and other fields change as various numbers are changed.

I wanted to create a pale orange:

Hue               13      Red      255

Saturation   240      Green  177

Luminosity    86       Blue     140

I'd selected one of the orange squares in the color grid, to display the general orange area of the slider.

I moved the slider to select a pale orange, which generated the above numbers.   Since this wasn't directly available to save to a Custom Color, I tried to  edit the numbers.  Unfortunately, the other numbers changed, making it impossible to actually create a color.

Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Note:  I used Techsmith's Snagit to show screen shots in a Word document.

When I attempted to browse and upload the file, the error message said "[The content type of this image is not allowed.]"

OK...what images *are* allowed?
