Try listing the pantone references on here and see if anyone can help

Alternatively, but a coated pantone chart so you can cross reference these and others in the future

Cheers

Without wishing to sound rude, buy a Pantone guide then ask if your stuck.

If I only wanted to buy 1 Pantone guide I would buy a Bridge that shows Spot colours and CMYK conversion.

If your serious it’s worth the investment.

I have a Pantone guide I was just wondering if there was an easier way to match the colours other than trawling through all my swatch cards.

Apart from getting someone else to do it ……. no 😉

If you have a pantone book, and the swatches, why can’t you do it yourself!

I think I must be missing something here! 😮

From Gerber’s ColorId I get this for 368

We do not have every vinyl palettes in the database because of licenses
The smaller "delta" value gives you the closest match. I can do the others if you wish.
