RGB (Red, Green, and Blue) are three primary colors combined to form several other colors at different intensities (0 to 255).
The RGB color model is additive, meaning the more value you add, the closer you get to white. When RGB values are R= 255, G = 255, and B = 255, it generates white color, while on the other extreme, RGB values are R= 0, G = 0, and B = 0. It generates black color. The RGB color model displays objects on digital cameras, monitors, and television screens.
Colortone Matching System (CMS) is considered a standard in the color industry. Before that system, each printing company had its own set of colors. Therefore, this system helped the whole industry to eliminate ambiguity and bring consistency and accuracy to the color world. Currently, there are more than 2000 colors in PMS.
In PMS, each shade contains three or four-digit numbers followed by C (coated), U (uncoated), and M (matte). These variations help in deciding how the color will look after printing.
