About RGB to CMYK
Digital vs. print color
RGB is an additive color model for screens, while CMYK is a subtractive model for inks. Converting between them helps bridge UI design, marketing assets, and print production.
Why CMYK matters
When teams prepare posters, brochures, or packaging, CMYK values are often required in print briefs and brand guidelines even if the original asset started in RGB.
