Read a color

HEX uses hexadecimal digits for a display color. RGB sets red, green and blue. HSL selects hue, saturation and lightness. OKLCH describes perceptual lightness, chroma and hue. An alpha value adds transparency.

Example red: #ff0000 → rgb(255, 0, 0). Add transparency with #ff000080 to make the red roughly half opaque.

Check the display range

Some colors sit outside the standard display range. Quietkit marks adjusted values so you can distinguish the display sample from the original color.

Enter oklch(70% 0.4 140). The notice means the displayed sample was adjusted. Keep the original value if your target supports a wider color range.

Scan the exported picture

A QR (Quick Response) code holds the text you enter. Keep its white margin and dark squares intact. Download the image and check it with a phone before printing.

Enter Hej Quietkit, download the image, then scan it with a phone. Expect the exact text, including its space.
