The Paint Mixer section estimates how the selected color could be described as a physical mix. It has separate views for artist pigments and printer inks.
Artist tab
The Artist tab uses an RYB-style pigment estimate with red, yellow, blue, white, and black percentages.
Printer tab
The Printer tab shows a CMYK-style ink estimate with cyan, magenta, yellow, and key black percentages.
- Percent bars show the approximate recipe.
- Visual blobs show the ingredient colors.
- Copy recipe copies the current mix as text.
Important
Real paint and print output depends on pigment, paper, light, printer profile, and material. Treat these values as guidance, not a guaranteed formula.
