0 18 10 9
Ink sits on the surface, so colors stay bright and close to screen.
Uncoated stocknatural or matte, U

The stock absorbs ink and gains dot, so it needs a heavier build and reads a touch softer.

How we calculate these values

Here is how the numbers for #e7bdcf are worked out. The rgb, hsl, hsv, cie-lab and xyz values follow the standard conversions from the sRGB color space. Two cmyk builds are shown because coated and uncoated papers behave differently, uncoated soaks up ink and needs more of it to hit the same target. For Pantone we return the nearest reference by perceptual distance, which gets you close but is not a substitute for a physical swatch book.
