Before · FIPS 201-2

Table 4-2 provides quantitative specifications for colors in three different color systems: sRGB Tristimulus, sRGB ([IEC61966], Color management – default RGB color space), and CMYK (Cyan, Magenta, Yellow and Key or ‘blacK’). Since the card body is white, the white color-coding is achieved by the absence of printing. Note that presence of the security feature, which may overlap colored or printed regions, may modify the perceived color. In the case of colored regions, the effect of overlap shall not prevent the recognition of the principal color by a person with normal vision (corrected or uncorrected) at a working distance of 50 cm to 200 cm.

Table 4-2. Color Representation

Color Zone sRGB Tristimulus Value (IEC 61966-2-1) sRGB Value (IEC 61966-2-1) CMYK Value {C,M,Y,K} White 15F {255, 255, 255} {255, 255, 255} {0, 0, 0, 0} Green 15F {153, 255, 153} {203, 255, 203} {40, 0, 40, 0} Blue 15F {0, 255, 255} {0, 255, 255} {100, 0, 0, 0} Red 12F {253, 27, 20} {254, 92, 79} {0, 90, 86, 0}

The colors in Table 4-2 can be mapped to the Pantone 21 color cue; however, note that this will not produce an exact match. An agency or department may use the following Pantone mappings in cases where Table 4-2 scales are not available.

• Blue—630C

• White—White

• Green—359C

• Red—032C

Table 4-2 provides quantitative specifications for colors in threefour different color systems: sRGB Tristimulus, sRGB ([IEC61966IEC 61966], Color management – default RGBsRGB color[IEC space)61966], and CMYK (Cyan, Magenta, Yellow, and Key or ‘blacK’), and PANTONE®. Note the PANTONE® color cue mapping is approximate and will not produce an exact match. An agency or department MAY use the PANTONE® mappings in cases where the exact color scales are not available. Since the card body is white, the white color-coding is achieved by the absence of printing. Note that presence of the security featurefeatures, which mayMAY overlap colored or printed regions, may modify the perceived color.
