  colour match please for pantone 535 light blue?

  Posted by Stuart Whitehouse on 16 June 2005 at 13:02

  Can anyone tell me where I might find a colour match for Pantone 535 Light Blue. I’ve tried all my suppliers and no one can get anywhere near it!
  I don’t mind which vinyl it is in just as long as its a near enough colour match

  Thanks

  I doubt whether you will get anything near that mate… best bet is to get some screen printed or a digi print of it…..or get them to choose a different colour if possible

  Also, 535 is certainly digitally printable.

  thanks guys.

  I’ll think I’ll have to print it. I have a cadet and signlab print & cut software. will the pantone colour be on there or will I have to somehow get it? maybe take a picture and import it as a fill? or am I going the long way round?

  Thanks

  What you need to do is print out a colour swatch sheet on your machine (little squares) and just match it by eye..

  According to the Pantone palette in Signlab 7.1, the colour 535c is defined as follows:
  LAB: 66.23, 0.46, -15.89
  RGB: 146, 162, 189
  CMYK: 16.9, 10.6, 0, 25.9

  See how you get on with these (?)
