Beige in print

In print it lays down as a whisper of ink, so keep it off small text where it can vanish. The cmyk build is 1, 0, 11, 5.

The same color needs a different cmyk build depending on the paper. Here is #eff2d7 on both.

Coated stockgloss or silk, C

1 0 11 5

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

Uncoated stocknatural or matte, U

5 4 14 11

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

Every value on this page for #eff2d7 is computed, not guessed. 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.
