Color RGB to CMYK tool

Online Color RGB to CMYK tool, you can convert colors from RGB mode to CMYK mode.

CMYK (cyan, magenta, yellow, black) is a color scheme commonly used for printing. It breaks down color into four main attributes:

  • Cyan: Indicates the amount of cyan ink. Increasing cyan reduces the proportion of red.
  • Magenta: Indicates the amount of magenta ink. Increasing magenta reduces the proportion of green.
  • Yellow: Indicates the amount of yellow ink. Increasing yellow reduces the proportion of blue.
  • Black: Indicates the amount of black ink. In CMYK mode, black is usually used alone to adjust depth and contrast, and also helps reduce costs because it is cheaper to use black ink than color ink.

CMYK mode is suitable for printing because it better reflects how inks mix during printing, while RGB mode is more suitable for colors on displays.
