CMYK to Panton color:

[MJ50]

Hi folks,

one of my client needs a pantone color which i use in artwork but i create the artwork by using CMYK colors, so is it possible to convert CMYK color to pantone color?

thanks

This is how I do it in Illy: http://vector.tutsplus.com/tutorials...yk-to-pantone/
Also there are many sites which will convert your CMYK colours to Pantone but the above is easier. Please make sure the "Overprint Preview" is turned on.
Hope this helps!

thank you very much albacore, but please let me cleared one thing about "Overprint Preview"?

Although you may be working in a CMYK art board when you set up your doc. the harder to see colours like both dark blue & maroon show better with that preview checked.
