In the printing industry there are two standard classifications for color reproduction: Primary and Process. Primary colors in printing are red, blue, green and black. Process colors are yellow, magenta (a shade of red), cyan (a shade of blue) and black. When purchasing a color ribbon for your printer, you will need to know whether you want the primary assortment of colors on the ribbon or the process assortment.

Not exactly. We have 3 types of cone cells that contribute to our perception of color, so all color can be described in terms of the relative stimulation of these cells. However, the physical phenomena that cause our percpetion of color are not necessarily composed of three primary colors. How do we reconcile these two thoughts? Let's consider the primary colors green and red.

One process color is color that is applied all over from roots to ends. Highlights, or dimensional lighting, are applied with foil or saran to achieve a blended natural effect or a more bold, trendy look.

A primary confluence is one that meets the primary goals of the project, that is, it is on (or close to) land, and not ruled out by the "Poles Problem" restrictions. Check out "What is a primary confluence" above for more details on this. A confluence that is on (or close to) land, but ruled out by the Poles rule is called secondary. Confluence points of this type will be accepted if visited but are not part of the primary goals of the project.

Spot colors are colors that are printed specifically to match your logo colors or the like. Process colors are typically used to build a photographic print. A term you will see for this type of printing is 4CP, which stands for four-color process. The colors used are yellow, cyan, magenta, and black.

No. In most cases the color of the part has no relation to the hardness or other physical characteristic. The pigment used to color our urethane components is a paste-like product that is mixed into the urethane in quantities of about 2-4%.

On the "Designs" page you are asked for the colors to match your motorcycle. Here you are selecting the color of the thread used to sew the design. Some designs have a single color - others have two or more. The "Notes" to the right of the design explain where each color appears in the design. If your want just one color where a Primary and Secondary colors are called for specify the same color for both Primary and Secondary colors.

with any product, you should test for color fastness. No reports of staining dyeing or bleaching when the product is used properly as a single liquid or fog solution.

CMYK or Process colors are mainly used for printing. With process color printing, four colors are used (Cyan, Magenta, Yellow and Black) to reproduce a virtually unlimited array of colors. With this color system, you can have virtually unlimited colors in your logo and not have to pay extra

A Primary Care Physician, or PCP, is the doctor you would go to on a regular basis, such as when you're simply not feeling well, or have an ear ache or the flu. A specialist is a doctor that your PCP might refer you to if the problem you have requires a doctor with more experience in a certain area.

A primary market, or "the issuing market", is where a security is issued and sold for the first time, either when a company issues capital shares on incorporation and sells them to founders or other investors, or when new shares are issued and sold in a period following incorporation for capital increase. Securities can also be put for sale to a specific group of investors, which is called "private placement".

Any collectible still being produced, or that is a current item, is considered to be on the primary market. A collectible that has been retired or discontinued and, therefore, is no longer available on the primary market, is considered to be on the secondary market.

There can only be one primary server. As for the secondary servers, you can have as many as you want: the information they have about your zone will be replicated from the primary server.

The distinction of primary from secondary amenorrhea is of little value in determining the cause for the amenorrhea. It does help doctors use a "word" shorthand to give a patient's history. A woman who has never had a spontaneous menstrual period has primary amenorrhea by definition. One who has ever had any spontaneous bleeding has secondary amenorrhea.

We offer three main categories of finish: 1) South Sea 2) Rainbow 3) Single Color (also known as Kiska). The difference lies in the number of color and protective layers used in each finish. The South Sea finish is the same as usually found in pearls from the Caribbean area for example, and their main characteristic is their deep and thick color. The rainbow finish is more bright and shiny and the single color finish is as its name indicates: the simplest and hence the cheapest one.

The MIND Set comes in three colors for personal preference only. Each MIND set has a red ball to focus on, even though the arm brace comes in the colors red, white, and black.

We are able to achieve similar results to brochure and magazine quality. Not all pantone colors can be reproduced using CMYK inks. In these cases we can print additional spot colors for color accuracy. We suggest that you purchase or view the Pantone Solid to Process Guide to better understand the inherent limitations of solid to process color printing.
