About the CMYK Color Model

CMYK stands for Cyan, Magenta, Yellow, and Key (Black), a color model specifically used for printing. In the CMYK model, colors are created by layering these inks on a white background. This subtractive color system works by absorbing different wavelengths of light, allowing specific colors to appear through the combination of ink layers. Commonly used in screen and offset printing, CMYK is essential for anyone aiming to produce accurate, vibrant prints on physical materials.
