The same color needs a different cmyk build depending on the paper. Here is #e7f2e2 on both.

Coated stockgloss or silk, C

5 0 7 5

Ink sits on the surface, so colors stay bright and close to screen.

Uncoated stocknatural or matte, U

9 4 10 11

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 #e7f2e2 are worked out. Rgb, hsl, hsv, lab and xyz are derived through the usual sRGB conversion formulas. The uncoated cmyk build carries more ink than the coated one, which is what a printer would compensate for when the same color runs on a rougher stock. The Pantone figure is the nearest match in our reference set by perceptual distance and it is an approximation, not an exact spot color.
