What is Full-Color Printing at StickerGiant?

Full-color printing aka Process color is a digital method where all ink colors in your design are printed at the same time. It utilizes combinations of cyan (C), magenta (M), yellow (Y) and black (K) to match a wide spectrum of colors. Most full-color newspapers and magazines are printed 4-color process, or CMYK.  Full-color printing allows us to match nearly any color in your designs with 95% color accuracy, as long as your original design is built with a CMYK color profile. 

Colors will vary from what you see on a screen to how your stickers or labels will be printed because of differences in color settings. Screens represent color using a method called RGB, while printed copies use CMYK. Learn more about the difference between CMYK and RGB here! 

If your files are built in RGB, Pantone, or Spot colors, we will convert them to CMYK to print. This will cause a shift in the colors of your design. If you need a very specific color, please provide the CMYK values that you would like to use when placing your order!
