What
is a PMS color?
(from http://www.bargainprinting.com/pms/)
PMS stands
for Pantone Matching System. This is a color system
developed to help designers and printers get matching
color results. For instance, often times a company's
logo will have a specific blue such as PMS 280, which is
a navy blue. Designers and printers will know what blue
that is and what your corresponding design elements
should look like, so your message is uniform in look and
style. Just tell them your logo is PMS 280. |

Remember, that your computer monitor will not accurately
display colors and should not be used to choose colors
where matching is critical. A range of Pantone Books are
available for purchase from most artist supply shops,
and is an essential requirement for any form of
printing, graphic or design work, we definitely
recommend you purchase one. |
