F.A.Qs about Web Colors
Types of Web colour codes
1. PMS (Pantone Matching System)
PMS colours (also called Pantone colours) are patented, standardized colour inks made by the Pantone company. Pantone has been around for over 50 years and is responsible for the creation of the first comprehensive standardized system of creating and matching colours in the graphic community. They literally wrote the book on it.
2. CMYK (cyan, magenta, yellow, black)
CMYK colour (also called the four-colour process) is actually a method whereby a combination of tiny transparent dots of four ink colours: cyan, magenta, yellow and black are printed. Different combinations of large and small CMYK transparent dots overlap each other to create a wide spectrum of colours.
3. RGB (red, green, blue)
The most commonly used colour profile in the world of computers, TV screens and mobile devices are RGB. RGB is the process by which colours are rendered onscreen by using combinations of red, green and blue.
4. HEX (hexadecimal color)
Designers and developers use HEX colours in web design. A HEX colour is expressed as a six-digit combination of numbers and letters defined by its mix of red, green and blue (RGB). Basically, a HEX colour code is a shorthand for its RGB values with a little conversion gymnastics in between.
