CMYK Color Space

CMYK is a subtractive color model used in color printing. It consists of four components:

• • Cyan (C): Primary printing color (0-100%)
• • Magenta (M): Primary printing color (0-100%)
• • Yellow (Y): Primary printing color (0-100%)
• • Key/Black (K): Black component (0-100%)

JavaScript CMYK to HEX Implementation

JavaScript implementation of the CMYK to HEX conversion process.

function cmykToRgb(c, m, y, k) {
  // Normalize values to 0-1 range
  c = c / 100;
  m = m / 100;
  y = y / 100;
  k = k / 100;

  // Convert to RGB
  const r = Math.round(255 * (1 - c) * (1 - k));
  const g = Math.round(255 * (1 - m) * (1 - k));
  const b = Math.round(255 * (1 - y) * (1 - k));

  return { r, g, b };
}

TypeScript CMYK to HEX Implementation

TypeScript implementation of the CMYK to HEX conversion process.

interface CMYK {
  c: number; // Cyan (0-100)
  m: number; // Magenta (0-100)
  y: number; // Yellow (0-100)
  k: number; // Key/Black (0-100)
}

class ColorConverter {
  static cmykToRgb(cmyk: CMYK) {
    const { c, m, y, k } = cmyk;
    
    // Normalize values to 0-1 range
    const cyan = c / 100;
    const magenta = m / 100;
    const yellow = y / 100;
    const key = k / 100;

    // Convert CMYK to RGB
    const r = Math.round(255 * (1 - cyan) * (1 - key));
    const g = Math.round(255 * (1 - magenta) * (1 - key));
    const b = Math.round(255 * (1 - yellow) * (1 - key));

    return { r, g, b };
  }

  static rgbToHex(rgb: { r: number; g: number; b: number }) {
    const toHex = (n: number) => {
      const hex = n.toString(16);
      return hex.length === 1 ? '0' + hex : hex;
    };
    
    return '#' + toHex(rgb.r) + toHex(rgb.g) + toHex(rgb.b);
  }

  static cmykToHex(cmyk: CMYK) {
    const rgb = this.cmykToRgb(cmyk);
    return this.rgbToHex(rgb);
  }
}

// Usage examples
console.log(ColorConverter.cmykToHex({ c: 0, m: 100, y: 100, k: 0 }));   // #FF0000 (Red)
console.log(ColorConverter.cmykToHex({ c: 100, m: 0, y: 100, k: 0 }));   // #00FF00 (Green)
console.log(ColorConverter.cmykToHex({ c: 100, m: 100, y: 0, k: 0 }));   // #0000FF (Blue)
console.log(ColorConverter.cmykToHex({ c: 0, m: 0, y: 0, k: 100 }));     // #000000 (Black)
console.log(ColorConverter.cmykToHex({ c: 0, m: 0, y: 0, k: 0 }));       // #FFFFFF (White)
