CMYK to Linear P3 Converter - Color Space Converter

CMYK color space introduction

Also known as the CMYK color space.There are 4 channels in total, cyan,commonly referred to as c,range from 0 to 100.magenta,commonly referred to as m,range from 0 to 100.yellow,commonly referred to as y,range from 0 to 100.black,commonly referred to as k,range from 0 to 100.
Source: CMYK is derived from the process of color printing. It's the result of the subtractive process, meaning the colors on the original white paper are achieved by subtracting certain colors from white.
Primary name: CMYK, full name being Cyan Magenta Yellow Key, where 'Key' typically refers to Black.
Usage: CMYK is mainly used for color printing, such as in magazines, brochures, posters, etc. It's also employed in graphic design related to printing.
Additionally, it's important to note that CMYK cannot represent all the colors in the RGB color space, especially those very bright ones. This is called a 'color gamut', and different color spaces have different gamuts. Furthermore, Black (K) is introduced in CMYK because pure CMY color mixing typically cannot produce a true black, but rather a deep brown.

Linear P3 color space introduction

Also known as the Linear P3 color space.There are 3 channels in total,Red,range from 0 to 1.Green,range from 0 to 1.Blue,range from 0 to 1.
Linear Display P3, or P3 Linear, is a variant of the P3 color space where the gamma correction applied in the standard Display P3 space is removed.
Linear Display P3 or P3 Linear.
In the Linear P3 color space, colors are represented through Red (R), Green (G), and Blue (B) channels without gamma correction.
Linear P3 is primarily used in professional color grading, image processing, and computer graphics, where linear light representation is essential.
Due to its provision of direct linear light values, Linear P3 is particularly suited for applications requiring advanced image processing and precise color control.
