Can someone please help me!? This continues to be a huge buggaboo for me as I cannot get a good grasp of the color issues with Xtreme.
I have a logo that I designed for someone and I gave them the CMYK color key for the blue in the logo, but the printer said that he needed the PANTONE color for it and that the .ai file I gave him (exported out to .ai from Xara) is in RGB mode and he wants to know exactly what PMS color he needs to shoot for.
According to Xara:
The RGB number for the blue is: 29.8% 36.9% 58.4% and has a # next to it that reads (4c5e95) Not sure what that means...
CMYK=76.5% 67.5% 25.5% 3.5%
According to a free progarm color picker (Pixie)
It says the RGB=76,94,149
It also says the CMYK= 29, 22, 0, 42
Why do they conflict? Which one do I believe and what would be the PANTONE equivalent?
This is ridiculous and far more complicated than it should be.
