        The RGB hex conversion of your example should be 003893 and is web compatible.

        If you wanted the hex version of your example for CMYK it's 22408C

          And yes, they are slightly different because one is web compatible, while the other is intended for print.

            If you look on this page, that hex (003893) and the RGB are right. But it lists a different CMYK. Where are you getting your value from?

              Photoshop conversion for CMYK and RGB to HEX.

                the CYMK example you gave of

                C100, M89, Y10, K2 converts to 22408C (CYMK Hex).

                  Yeah but the hex value that is listed is for web.

                  Do you think the CMYK listed and the RGB and web-hex are all the same value?

                  AKA does the CMYK value = the RGB value?

                    For Web and Print? No of course not because they are different use cases.

                      The CYMK Hex value is 22408C the RGB value is 003893. RGB is for screen, CMYK is for print.

                        OK, so let's say I have the RGB value of (0,56,147) ... I want to convert that to a CMYK value to give to someone. How do I do that, and what would it be?

                          You're trying to convert a color for digital only to physical print so it won't be exact.

                            I know it won't be exactly eact, but it should be close.

                            So, what would that value be?

                              I already told you what the value is in CYMK Hex

                              22408C

                                But I don't want to go that way.

                                I am saying if I ONLY know the RGB color, and then want to get, say, a tshirt printed with that color, and the printer needs the CMYK value how do I find it out?

                                  ?? Dont want to go what way? You have an RGB, you want converted to CMYK, yes?

                                    Yes. You keep giving me a hex value for a CMYK value.

                                    I want to create a CMYK value from a RGB value.

                                    So, if I got to this page, and enter in the RGB value, are you saying the CMYK value it gives me is not correct?

                                      So you want to go from CMYK to RGB?

                                            Dustin - Willard's linked convertor disagrees with your hex value.

                                            Edit - well, perhaps not - because while it says hex - it doesn't say if that's the RGB hex or the CYMK hex.
