CMYK to Lab D65 Converter - Color Space Converter

Also known as the CMYK color space.There are 4 channels in total, cyan,commonly referred to as c,range from 0 to 100.magenta,commonly referred to as m,range from 0 to 100.yellow,commonly referred to as y,range from 0 to 100.black,commonly referred to as k,range from 0 to 100.

Source: CMYK is derived from the process of color printing. It's the result of the subtractive process, meaning the colors on the original white paper are achieved by subtracting certain colors from white.

Primary name: CMYK, full name being Cyan Magenta Yellow Key, where 'Key' typically refers to Black.

Usage: CMYK is mainly used for color printing, such as in magazines, brochures, posters, etc. It's also employed in graphic design related to printing.

Additionally, it's important to note that CMYK cannot represent all the colors in the RGB color space, especially those very bright ones. This is called a 'color gamut', and different color spaces have different gamuts. Furthermore, Black (K) is introduced in CMYK because pure CMY color mixing typically cannot produce a true black, but rather a deep brown.

Also known as the Lab D65 color space.There are 3 channels in total,L,range from 0 to 100.a,range from -125 to 125.b,range from -125 to 125.

Lab-D65 is a specific instance of the CIELAB color space that uses the D65 illuminant as its reference white point.

Lab-D65 color space.

In the Lab-D65 color space, colors are represented by Lightness (L*), a* (green-red chroma component), and b* (blue-yellow chroma component), with reference to the D65 illuminant.

Lab-D65 is commonly used in color-related applications that require a daylight reference, such as image processing, printing, and photography.

The Lab-D65 color space is widely used to ensure consistency and accuracy of colors across different devices and lighting conditions.
