  help please with unusual pantone numbers

  Posted by Neill Hague on 26 July 2007 at 08:07

  Hi all

  I have been given some Pantone reference numbers by a customer that I have never seen before. Apparently the numbers have come from Illustrator. Can anyone help me get the ‘normal’ solid coated numbers.
  The numbers given are as follows:

  Bright Red: DS 91-1C

  Grey: DS 79-9C

  Burgundy: DS 84-3C

  Even better would be a vinyl recommendation for the red.

  thanks

  Neill

  They are Pantone Process Colour refs.

  Bright Red: DS 91-1C – C0 M100 Y80 K10

  Grey: DS 79-9C – C10 M15 Y15 15 This is not actually a grey ( It has a RED hue) but may look grey. DS79-1 is a dark burgundy red.

  Burgundy: DS 84-3C – – C30 M75 Y75 K15

  Each colour starts with a number like DS91 then they go in steps DS91 – 1, DS91 – 2 etc etc. like tints of that colour.

  Hopefully this helps you a little.

  Tim.
