The CMYK model works by partially or entirely masking colors on a lighter, usually white, background. The ink reduces the light that would otherwise be reflected. Such a model is called subtractive because inks "subtract" the colors red, green and blue from white light; white light minus red leaves cyan, white light minus green leaves magenta ...
Main articles: CMY color modeland CMYK color model. It is possible to achieve a large range of colors seen by humans by combining cyan, magenta, and yellowtransparent dyes/inks on a white substrate. These are the subtractiveprimary colors. Often a fourth ink, black, is added to improve reproduction of some dark colors.
In the RGB model, the primary colors are red, green, and blue. The complementary primary–secondary combinations are red – cyan, green – magenta, and blue – yellow. In the RGB color model, the light of two complementary colors, such as red and cyan, combined at full intensity, will make white light, since two complementary colors contain ...
One starts with a white substrate (canvas, page, etc.), and uses ink to subtract color from white to create an image. CMYK stores ink values for cyan, magenta, yellow and black. There are many CMYK colorspaces for different sets of inks, substrates, and press characteristics (which change the dot gain or transfer function for each ink and thus ...

Chroma key compositing, or chroma keying, is a visual-effects and post-production technique for compositing (layering) two or more images or video streams together based on colour hues ( chroma range). The technique has been used in many fields to remove a background from the subject of a photo or video – particularly the newscasting, motion ...
Color theory, or more specifically traditional color theory, is the historical body of knowledge describing the behavior of colors, namely in color mixing, color contrast effects, color harmony, color schemes and color symbolism. [ 1] Modern color theory is generally referred to as Color science. While there is no clear distinction in scope ...
CcMmYK color model. An image printed with a CcMmYKk ink set, on both paper and canvas stock. The ink cartridges used are also shown. CcMmYK, sometimes referred to as CMYKLcLm or CMYKcm, is a six-color printing process used in some inkjet printers optimized for photo printing. [ 1] It complements the more common four color CMYK process, which ...
