Navy in print

The same color needs a different cmyk build depending on the paper. Here is #22016e on both.

Coated stockgloss or silk, C

69 99 0 57

Ink sits on the surface, so colors stay bright and close to screen.

Uncoated stocknatural or matte, U

67 95 4 63

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 #22016e 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. For Pantone we return the nearest reference by perceptual distance, which gets you close but is not a substitute for a physical swatch book.
