In the Coraye software, select your color table in the left column, then right click to select "Export"

A new window appears Select the ".acb or .ase" icon

Give a name before saving your file (for example: My Color Table.acb)

Head over to the hamburger dropdown and click Open Swatch Library > Other Library.

Browse to select your color Table (.acb or .ase), then click on Open
