Question
Can you match colors from a design file I provide?
Answer
4OVER4 matches color as closely as possible using the CMYK values in your file. No press can guarantee an exact match, so a free online proof is the best way to confirm the color before production.
- Supply your color values in CMYK
- Know that not every Pantone converts cleanly into CMYK
- Order a free online proof to review the color
- Approve only once the color looks right to you
| Color mode | Best for |
|---|---|
| CMYK | Print output, most reliable match |
| Pantone | Spot color reference, not all convert to CMYK |
| RGB | Screen only, gets converted for print |
