      Anyone here experienced with colors?

      I am dealing with a logo, and it has a variety of colors I am not sure are correct.

      Here is one example...

      C-100 M-89 Y-10 K-2
      R-0 G-56 B-147
      #000099

      1. I think the hex is wrong because I think HEX and RGB are always mirrors of each other. So the hex SHOULD be #003893.

      2. I have the CMYK coming out to be (100, 62, 0, 42). Again, I am assuming these three numbers should all be mirrors of each other, correct?

      So if anyone can shed some light on this colorful question, I would appreciate it!

        HEX is obviously wrong, that's a hex for medium green.

          No it is CLOSE to what it is supposed to be, a darker blue.

            The CMYK hex is 22408C the RGB for web is 003893

            They are slightly different.

                  The RGB hex conversion of your example should be 003893 and is web compatible.

                  If you wanted the hex version of your example for CMYK it's 22408C

                    And yes, they are slightly different because one is web compatible, while the other is intended for print.

                      If you look on this page, that hex (003893) and the RGB are right. But it lists a different CMYK. Where are you getting your value from?

                        Photoshop conversion for CMYK and RGB to HEX.

                          the CYMK example you gave of

                          C100, M89, Y10, K2 converts to 22408C (CYMK Hex).

                            Yeah but the hex value that is listed is for web.

                            Do you think the CMYK listed and the RGB and web-hex are all the same value?

                            AKA does the CMYK value = the RGB value?

                              For Web and Print? No of course not because they are different use cases.

                                The CYMK Hex value is 22408C the RGB value is 003893. RGB is for screen, CMYK is for print.

                                  OK, so let's say I have the RGB value of (0,56,147) ... I want to convert that to a CMYK value to give to someone. How do I do that, and what would it be?

                                    You're trying to convert a color for digital only to physical print so it won't be exact.

                                      I know it won't be exactly eact, but it should be close.

                                      So, what would that value be?

                                        22408C

                                          But I don't want to go that way.

                                          I am saying if I ONLY know the RGB color, and then want to get, say, a tshirt printed with that color, and the printer needs the CMYK value how do I find it out?

                                            ?? Dont want to go what way? You have an RGB, you want converted to CMYK, yes?
