What this tool helps you do

Colour conversion expresses a colour through another model such as HEX, RGB, HSL, or CMYK. Screen models and print models describe different reproduction systems, so numeric conversion cannot fully predict a physical printed result.

When it is useful

  • Translating a CSS colour
  • Inspecting RGB and HSL relationships
  • Preparing an approximate CMYK value
  • Normalizing design specifications

A practical example

Convert a HEX brand colour to RGB for code and HSL for controlled lightness variations. For printing, use the printer's colour profile rather than relying only on a generic CMYK conversion.

Limitations and common mistakes

Rounding can produce small round-trip differences. Alpha transparency is separate from the base colour, and out-of-gamut screen colours may become duller in print.

Frequently asked questions

Why does CMYK not match my screen?

CMYK depends on inks, paper, and a colour profile; screens use emitted RGB light.

Is HEX a different colour space from RGB?

CSS HEX is primarily another notation for RGB channel values.
