Frequently Asked Questions

What's the difference between RGB and CMYK?

RGB (Red, Green, Blue) is used for digital screens - it's an additive color model. CMYK (Cyan, Magenta, Yellow, Key/Black) is used for print - it's a subtractive model. Colors may look different between the two due to this fundamental difference.

What does HSL stand for?

HSL stands for Hue, Saturation, Lightness. It's often more intuitive than RGB because you can easily adjust a color's brightness or saturation without changing the base hue. It's widely used in CSS.

Why does my HEX color look different in print?

Digital screens use RGB color space while printers use CMYK. Not all RGB colors can be reproduced in CMYK. Always convert to CMYK and proof your colors before sending designs to print.
