in offset printing, for example, the cmyk colors are printed as dots of different sizes. One of the questions for me is how many size options are there for the individual colored dots?

As a sign maker, for estimating I can usually interpolate sizes from an image, the sizes are enought to get rough costing for materials etc and then if the job goes ahead then I take precise measurements.

There are fine tools out that generate color schemes with a color wheel based on color science. E.g. Paletton does so and offer me to export the colors to CSS.

I'm trying to create a curved banner like this in GIMP. I've tried the Paths Tool, but I couldn't get it exact. Is there another way, or was I using the Paths Tool incorrectly?
