About #C5CC50
The precise color #C5CC50 is an excellent choice for modern design projects. Designers often compare it to the standard color Khaki. To achieve this exact tint on a monitor, you would use an RGB mix of 197, 204, and 80.
While screens use RGB, printing presses rely on Cyan, Magenta, Yellow, and Key (black). To reproduce this shade on paper, a printer utilizes 3% cyan and 0% magenta inks. This makes it a relatively light color when applied to physical surfaces.
Contrast ratios determine whether this color is safe for typography. Because it is a medium 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.
