To see how this works in practice, suppose we have a particular RGB and CMYK color space, and want to convert from this RGB to that CMYK. The first step is to obtain the two ICC profiles concerned. To perform the conversion, each RGB triplet is first converted to the Profile connection space (PCS) using the RGB profile.
In the CMYK model, it is the opposite: white is the natural color of the paper or other background, and black results from a full combination of colored inks. To save cost on ink, and to produce deeper black tones, unsaturated and dark colors are produced by using black ink instead of or in addition to combinations of cyan, magenta, and yellow.
In order to convert RGB or CMYK values to or from L*a*b*, the RGB or CMYK data must be linearized relative to light. The reference illuminant of the RGB or CMYK data must be known, as well as the RGB primary coordinates or the CMYK printer's reference data in the form of a color lookup table (CLUT).
Common color spaces based on the RGB model include sRGB, Adobe RGB, ProPhoto RGB, scRGB, and CIE RGB. CMYK uses subtractive color mixing used in the printing process, because it describes what kind of inks need to be applied so the light reflected from the substrate and through the inks produces a given color. One starts with a white substrate ...
Open the PDF in Adobe Illustrator. Go to File > Save As (Shift + Ctrl + S). From the Format drop-down menu, select SVG (*.SVG). Save As. In the resulting dialog box: Under SVG Profiles, choose a profile (usually SVG 1.0 or SVG 1.1). Under Type, if you are not using web-safe fonts, select Convert to outline. (Warning: this greatly increases the ...
As the value increases above 50%, it has the effect of tinting, and full lightness produces white. At zero saturation, lightness controls the resulting shade of gray. A value of zero still produces black, and full lightness still produces white. The midpoint value results in the "middle" shade of gray, with an RGB value of (128,128,128).
Care must be taken when using electronic design programs (e.g. when managing a CMYK document in Adobe Illustrator or Corel Draw) – "black" may or may not equal 100%K depending on the CMYK profile specified in the image's settings, and Photoshop will represent the various tones using RGB values close to black; in an RGB document, "black ...
Open the PDF in Adobe Illustrator. Select the page of the PDF you are interested in if the PDF is a multi-page document (Illustrator will only open one page at a time). Go to File > Save As (Shift + Ctrl + S). From the Format drop-down menu, select SVG (*.SVG). Save As. In the resulting dialog box:
