Hey!

I got a logo designed for me and just learned about CMYK the hard way. When sending the files to printing companies etc, will they still be able to replicate the RGB colors (lime green in this case) or should I consider remaking the logo with CMYK in mind?

Thanks

you should remake them or better still convert it to CMYK using adobe illustrator.

The printer will be able to convert your file to CMYK but there is a reason they are alerting you ahead of time. It will be duller then you might be expecting - screen vs paper.

Yes I know. But what about more professional printing companies that print all kinds of stuff, like business cards etc.. will they be able to replicate the colors or is all printing limited to CMYK?

don't mind just remake it to CMYK and the color will be changing on their own
