Deep teal in print

A color this vivid sometimes sits just outside cmyk gamut, so expect a small dip in punch on paper. The cmyk build is 93, 13, 0, 58.

The same color needs a different cmyk build depending on the paper. Here is #085e6c on both.

Coated stockgloss or silk, C
93 13 0 58
Ink sits on the surface, so colors stay bright and close to screen.
Uncoated stocknatural or matte, U
90 16 4 64
The stock absorbs ink and gains dot, so it needs a heavier build and reads a touch softer.

This color converts to cmyk comfortably and should hold on press.

How we calculate these values

The figures for #085e6c come from standard color math, shown so you can check them. The rgb, hsl, hsv, cie-lab and xyz values follow the standard conversions from the sRGB color space. The uncoated cmyk build carries more ink than the coated one, which is what a printer would compensate for when the same color runs on a rougher stock. The Pantone value is the closest reference by perceptual color distance and should be treated as a starting point, not a guaranteed match.
