About Pantone to HEX Conversion

Converting Pantone (PMS) colors to HEX is a common requirement for designers moving from print to digital media. While Pantone is a standardized color matching system primarily used in printing, HEX codes are used for on-screen display in web design.

Because print (CMYK/Pantone) and screen (RGB/HEX) use different color models (subtractive vs. additive), a 100% perfect match is not always physically possible. However, our tool uses industry-standard mapping to provide the closest possible digital equivalent for your Pantone colors.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why doesn't the HEX color look exactly like my printed Pantone chip?

Screens emit light (RGB), while paper reflects light (CMYK/Pantone). Some vibrant Pantone colors fall outside the RGB gamut and cannot be perfectly reproduced on a standard monitor.

What does the 'C' or 'U' mean?

'C' stands for Coated (glossy paper), and 'U' stands for Uncoated (matte paper). The same ink formula looks different on different paper stocks, so they have different digital values.
