What is CMYK to RGB?

CMYK describes colour as percentages of cyan, magenta, yellow, and black ink. RGB describes colour as intensities of red, green, and blue light on a screen. Converting between the two models lets you take a colour defined in a print context and use it in a digital or web context.

The conversion goes through a standard mathematical formula that maps 0–100% CMYK values to 0–255 RGB integers.

How to Use CMYK to RGB

1

Enter C, M, Y, K values as percentages (0–100)

2

The R, G, B values and CSS rgb() string appear instantly

3

Copy the output for use in CSS, SVG, or a colour library

Common Use Cases

  • Developers implementing brand colours from a print style guide in CSS or SVG.
  • Designers converting Pantone-matched CMYK specs to RGB for screen mockups.
  • Engineers feeding RGB values into canvas drawing APIs or colour processing libraries.
  • Anyone bridging a print-first workflow into a digital-first design system.

Example Input and Output

Converting a CMYK print value to its RGB screen equivalent.
