FAQ
Q. Why is CMYK conversion approximate?
CMYK is a subtractive color model for print (ink), while screens use RGB (light). Some bright screen colors cannot be physically printed, so we provide the closest printable match.
Q. Is my image uploaded?
No. The image palette extraction happens entirely in your browser using JavaScript canvas. Your images are never sent to our servers.
Q. What formats are supported?
We support HEX (3, 4, 6, 8 digits), RGB/RGBA, HSL/HSLA, CMYK, and CSS Color Names.
