    Hi All,

    Can anyone help me convert these CMYK colour values to Pantone reference colours. I’ve converted them in Corel X3 but I just want to make sure I got the right colours before spending loads of money out.

    I need to convert Blue C=100, M=30, Y=0, and K=0. I got Pantone 3005c
    Orange C=0, M=44, Y=88, and K=0. I got Pantone 715c
    Red C=0, M=100 Y=100, and K=0. I got Pantone 485c

    plus these two other shades

    Blue C=100, M=73, Y=0, and K=2. I got Pantone 286c
    Orange C=0, M=49, Y=100, and K=0. I got Pantone 138c

    Please let me know if I’m correct of that I’m miles off.

    Thanks in advance

    from Mark
