## Frequently asked questions

### Why do colors look different on screen compared to print?

CMYK uses subtractive color mixing for ink on paper, while sRGB uses additive mixing for light on screens, which have different color gamuts.

### Can I convert multiple colors at once?

Yes, you can enter multiple CMYK values by placing each one on a new line in the input box.

### What output formats are supported?

The tool supports sRGB, CSS-style rgb(), simple comma-separated values, and labeled R:G:B formats.

### Is this conversion perfectly accurate?

The tool provides a standard mathematical conversion; however, due to the difference in color spaces, exact visual matches may vary depending on your monitor's calibration.

### Do I need to install any software?

No, this is a web-based utility that runs directly in your browser without requiring any downloads or installations.
