One thing that the printing industry got right is the Pantone Matching System (with the unfortunate acronym) for colors. With only rare exceptions (reflex blue, etc), every color is a number.

So colors are PMS 185 (which is a red), PMS 165 (orange), etc.

And of course, colors on a screen can be broken down into RGB values.
