The same color needs a different cmyk build depending on the paper. Here is #d4eef0 on both.

Coated stockgloss or silk, C

12 1 0 6

Ink sits on the surface, so colors stay bright and close to screen.

Uncoated stocknatural or matte, U

15 5 4 12

The stock absorbs ink and gains dot, so it needs a heavier build and reads a touch softer.

How we calculate these values

The figures for #d4eef0 come from standard color math, shown so you can check them. We convert from sRGB to each space with the standard formulas, so the codes match what design tools show. Two cmyk builds are shown because coated and uncoated papers behave differently, uncoated soaks up ink and needs more of it to hit the same target. For Pantone we return the nearest reference by perceptual distance, which gets you close but is not a substitute for a physical swatch book.
