What kind of green is Very Light Green?

Every color has a place in the standard vocabulary. This is Very Light Green's, measured rather than asserted.

Very Light Green in CMYK: one value for files, one per press

None of these presses can print this color. It's lighter than the paper, and ink only darkens a sheet, so the brightest thing on a printed page is the page itself. So what do you do? Pick a brighter stock, or let the paper be your lightest tone and build the contrast somewhere else.

In CMYK, #D1FFBD is C18 · M0 · Y25.9 · K0. That is the value design tools and file formats use when no press is involved.

On press (what each standard prints)

Press values computed through the ICC characterization data each standard proofs against. Each CMYK above is the closest that standard can get. None of them reaches the color. It sits above the paper's own white.
