Uncoated stocknatural or matte, U

21 5 4 6

The stock absorbs ink and gains dot, so it needs a heavier build and reads a touch softer.

How we calculate these values

Here is how the numbers for #d2fcff are worked out. The rgb, hsl, hsv, cie-lab and xyz values follow the standard conversions from the sRGB color space. Two cmyk builds are shown because coated and uncoated papers behave differently, uncoated soaks up ink and needs more of it to hit the same target. The Pantone value is the closest reference by perceptual color distance and should be treated as a starting point, not a guaranteed match.
