Exercise caution when creating blue hues for printing. The spectrum of colors achievable in CMYK is notably narrower than the RGB spectrum visible on a typical monitor. Consequently, when a file is converted to CMYK for printing, there's a risk of color shifts and a reduction in vibrancy.

If we notice that your blue might turn purple during printing, we'll request a color adjustment, which could lead to delays. Our goal is to ensure you achieve the results you're aiming for. However, given the subjective nature of color perception, we might not always detect such issues. Therefore, we advise you to adhere to the following guidelines, especially if you're uncertain.

For instance, many vibrant blues in RGB (the color mode used by monitors) often transform into purple hues in CMYK, as they fall beyond the CMYK color gamut. Instead of striving to replicate these bright blues, consider utilizing alternative blue blends more suitable for CMYK. It's important to remember to create your files in CMYK rather than RGB.

To prevent this color shift, avoid selecting colors that trigger the gamut warning in the color picker. This warning indicates that the color lies outside the CMYK range and will likely change upon printing. By clicking on the warning icon, Photoshop will automatically select the nearest color that can be accurately reproduced in CMYK.

Blue and purple are closely aligned within the CMYK spectrum. To prevent your blue from shifting to purple, it's advisable to use a lower proportion of magenta and a higher proportion of cyan. Ensure that there is at least a 25% difference between your Cyan and Magenta values to maintain the distinctiveness of the blue hue.
