Noodler's Inks In Hexadecimal.

[Kylethetrial]

In calculus this morning it came to me, what are noodler's inks in the hexadecimal system?

 

Why? I have an Ipad that I do handwritten notes on and I wanted my color presets to match my ink collection.

I'm curious as to why you are doing handwritten notes when you can use your pens. Is it because it can be neater?

I am sure there will be better suggestions, but i would just instal ColorZilla or similar into my browser and use the colour-picker to determine the hex code from online swabs.

I have a database of inks that I have, and I have converted each of them to RBG Hex. I do this because the form I have will show me a square of the color as I browse through them.

 

However, it's far from a perfect system because the same ink can come up with dozens of RGB codes. There's shading, paper, lightning, the pen used, etc that all contribute to the variation. Generally I use the swatches from the Goulet website. I use Photoshop to capture the RGB code, because I can configure it to take the average color over a selected area, and not a single point.

I'm dim. How are you able to tell the iPad the hex number you want?

Are you only able to do this in all or certain iPad apps?

 

Interesting idea.

 

Hope you will post a how to.
