HEX to Pantone

HEX stands for RGB hexadecimal. It looks like this # 102945, the first two digits are responsible for red, the second for green and the third for blue. Each character can take on the following values: 0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9, a, b, c, d, e, f. Where # 000000 is black and #ffffff is white. For browsers, a simplified form of writing color in HEX format is also possible, where only three code characters are indicated instead of 6. In this case, it is assumed that each of the three groups consists of the same characters. For example, AAFF11 can be abbreviated to AF1. In addition to these features, the HEX model also supports an alpha channel for controlling transparency, in which case a fourth coefficient is added in the range of 00 and FF (256 values). In this case, the use of the abbreviated form of notation is no longer allowed.
