Aquamarine in print

It converts to cmyk cleanly and holds its character from screen to paper. The cmyk build is 41, 0, 21, 7.

Coated stockgloss or silk, C
41 0 21 7
Ink sits on the surface, so colors stay bright and close to screen.
Uncoated stocknatural or matte, U
42 4 23 13
The stock absorbs ink and gains dot, so it needs a heavier build and reads a touch softer.

This color is saturated enough to sit near the edge of cmyk gamut, so expect a small drop in punch on paper and proof it before a long run.

How we calculate these values

The figures for #8deebb 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 figure is the nearest match in our reference set by perceptual distance and it is an approximation, not an exact spot color.
