# CMYK

CMYK is the standard print colour system using four inks: Cyan, Magenta, Yellow, and Key (Black).

## Detail

CMYK reproduction has a colour range that depends on the ink, paper and printing conditions. Some colours seen on an RGB display fall outside that range. Follow the provider’s requested colour profiles and file settings. A suitable proof and an agreed colour reference help assess the result; converting a file to CMYK alone does not guarantee a screen match.
