Shared Drive/Interoffice Forms for CPC/Coat of Arms

Various file formats for print and screen — including .psd, .jpg, .png, .pdf — are available in three folders.

CYMK - print
Grayscale-monochrome
RGB - web

RGB - used for digital projects that will be viewed on a screen—website, email, Powerpoint, social media, etc.
(All screens use RGB, which stands for red, green, blue.)
CMYK - used for print projects, when they are being printed digitally (i.e. on an office printer, copy machine,
etc. Some printers will refer to these types of machines as “digital presses.”) or on a printing press. The CMYK is
a formula that tells the printer how much of each ink color (C=cyan, M=magenta, Y=yellow, K=black) to mix/
process to get the correct printed color. Therefore, CMYK is also referred to as “process” or “4 color.”
Pantone or “spot color” - used for print projects when they are being printed via offset press, 1-color, or
2-colors of ink only; or often used by vendors to match colors for clothing or giveaway items. This type of
printing ensures more accurate color results, since there is no mixing and less calibrating involved.

Hexachrome or “hex” - color codes for use when coding for the web. (For example: #005596)
