RGB (red, green, blue) is at the right side, and CYMK (cyan, magenta, yellow, black) is at the left. Graphics and text make the infographic easy enough to understand even for those who aren\u2019t well versed in color spectrum and printing process.<\/p>\n<p>Reading through the infographic can help clients and artists decide on which works best for them, especially since the arsenal section lists down the tools and media suitable for both RGB and CMYK. As well, they can get tips from the strengths and weakness sections, plus the final verdict which states that as far as the digital realm is concerned, RGB wins while CMYK is tops in print form.<\/p>\n<div align=\"center\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-369 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.cardprinting.com\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/RGB-vs-CMYK-infographic-scaled.webp\" alt=\"infographic defining the difference between RGB and CMYK color spaces\" width=\"632\" height=\"2560\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.cardprinting.com\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/RGB-vs-CMYK-infographic-scaled.webp 632w, https:\/\/www.cardprinting.com\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/RGB-vs-CMYK-infographic-74x300.webp 74w, https:\/\/www.cardprinting.com\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/RGB-vs-CMYK-infographic-253x1024.webp 253w, https:\/\/www.cardprinting.com\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/RGB-vs-CMYK-infographic-379x1536.webp 379w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 632px) 100vw, 632px\" \/><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Lots of people don&#8217;t understand color and how it is created in print or on the screen.
