A color mode in which color information in an image is stored as a mix of red, green and blue. Cameras, scanners and computer monitors record and display images in this mode. If an image is to be printed in full color, it must be converted to CMYK mode before it can be printed. This usually takes place automatically during production, but the CMYK conversion can also be done manually to provide greater control. Conversion from RGB to spot color must always be done manually.
