HEX Color #AFFF75 (Palegreen)

About #AFFF75

The precise color #AFFF75 is an excellent choice for modern design projects. It is closely associated with the named CSS color Palegreen. To achieve this exact tint on a monitor, you would use an RGB mix of 175, 255, and 117.

While screens use RGB, printing presses rely on Cyan, Magenta, Yellow, and Key (black). Its ink density profile breaks down to 31% cyan, 0% magenta, 54% yellow, and 0% black. This makes it a relatively light color when applied to physical surfaces.

Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) dictate how we should use this color. Because it is a light color, it is generally recommended to use #000000 text. Be sure to check our contrast matrix below to see exactly how it performs against common backgrounds.
