Colour Pantones

PANTONE is a standard set of colours, with each colour specified by a number. The Pantone colours can be further broken down into a colour separation used by professional printers to calibrate colour reproduction.

Colours created using the Pantone Matching System® (PMS). Pantone, Inc. is the world-renowned authority on colour and provider of colour systems and leading technology for the selection and accurate communication of colour.

Please keep your Pantones in the Solid Coated and Solid Uncoated libraries.

Pantone naming conventions are critical to ensure look up tables can match: eg. Pantone 123 Coated

Correct: Pantone 123 C

Incorrect:
PMS 123C
PMS 123
Pantone 123 C (1)
Pantone 123 C Copy
