Alphabet Soup of Color Notation - Tuesday 4:30 - 5:30

For every named color - from Aegean Teal to Zesty Lime - there exist at least a dozen different ways to communicate that color. Color notations and specifications used by different communities within the Inter-Society Color Council include PMS, NCS, RAL, XYZ, RGB, LAB, LCH, ICC and CMYK. Colors may be described using a PMS number, sRGB, L*a*b*, HEX and CMYK data. This course will sort out these different notations, show how they are related and most importantly help you apply this understanding in your work. We will have a variety of fandecks, other color systems and measuring tools on hand to work with and attendees are invited to submit notations or color specifications beforehand for discussion.
