Pantone’s refreshed CMYK Guide contains 2,868 CMYK colours, chromatically arranged. These colors are ideal for branding, packaging, and materials used in smaller brand campaigns where fresh, less-exposed colors are desired.
Some colours in these guides are marked to identify which colours have a Pantone Matching System (PMS) Formula Guide equivalent. Colours without an asterisk are unique, meaning they don’t have a close PMS Spot Color equivalent.
CMYK Colour Guide contains 2,868 CMYK-colours presented on both coated and uncoated paper. Chromatically arranged for a more intuitive and easily accessible inspiration, this two-guide- set allows you to visualize, communicate and control CMYK-colours for typography, logos, backgrounds and other graphical areas of application. This wide range is an amendment to the 2161 colours that the Pantone Matching System contains.
