Pantone Color System • Widely used standardized color system • Can produce color that can’t be mixed in CMYK • Use a system of numbers and a suffix • Number denotes color, Suffix denotes paper being printed on. • Suffixes include:CV- Computer Video C-Coated U-UncoatedM-Matte • Guides for tints, pastels, metallics • Offer Swatches and Chip books to preview colors • Available on most modern creative software.
Color Space • Color space is the range of colors, from the eye of a camera lens, to the display of a computer monitor. • However, Adobe RGB or sRGBare device-independent due to editing color spaces.
