About #CC0700
When working with digital screens, the color #CC0700 is rendered by mixing light. If you're using CSS, you might find it aligns closely with Orangered. This translates to an RGB value of rgb(204, 7, 0).
While screens use RGB, printing presses rely on Cyan, Magenta, Yellow, and Key (black). This specific hue requires a mix of 0% C, 97% M, 100% Y, and 20% K. Always request a physical proof before doing a large print run with this exact code.
