Matching pantone solids to process

Ok, so I only have a pantone booklet for printing inks. Say I choose a color from there. 322U. I know color bridge is somehow used for pantone maching with process colors. How do I know which swatch to pick that will be closest to 322U? I've been looking all over and I feel like it's right in front of my eyes but I'm not seeing it. I've tried using Color Bridge CMYK UP 322U and it comes out much bluer. Is it my printer, or am I not using the right pantone color? Thanks for your help, I'm new to pantone color matching.

You have to try and focus on the swatch samples, not the monitor. Your workflow just may be short on accuracy. If the print does not match, it's the printer. The printed swatch reference books from Pantone are there for verification on what is possible via a calibrated system and an advance RIP for color conversions. If you are compelled to try and match the 322 using your existing system, then create a series of your own swatches and create your own CMYK deviants based on the original 100c, 0m, 33y, 35k formula. This could be a full sheet of 1x1 swatches in 5% increments + and - from the original formula. Print those and select the one that comes closest to your swatch book 322. That's the formula you use in your file's proof. You will have to retain a backup copy of the file using the standard formula that will go to press. So, one file to press, one file to your desktop printer. But, the value of a Postscript RIP is understated here. An Epson 4800 Pro with a Colorburst RIP will do all of the Spot color matching for you. You simply indicate in Illustrator which elements to specify Spot color and assign 322 to them. The RIP will use color tables in conjunction with the RIP to print the Spot color to a close 322 using process color. On press, the 322 will be output as a plate and printed using Spot 322U.

Pantone solid to process conversion using Adobe Illustrator CS5

Hello everyone.
I´m having a little problem converting a solid color to process using the Adobe Swatch Libraries.
I own a Pantone Color Bridge Coated and Uncoated set books and I chose the color 3262 C for a client of mine.
On the book the equivalent process color for this solid one is C 76 M 0 Y 38 K 0.
But, when I select the same solid color on Adobe Illustrator, and I ask to convert to process, the software is giving me different CMYK coordinates. The software is showing the "correct" process color equivalent to 3626 C is C 78 M 0 Y 32 K 0.
Ok, now my questions:
- Which one I should consider as the most accurate solid to process conversion? The book or the Adobe conversion?
- Maybe my Adobe Illustrator is not updated? I downloaded the digital Libraries from Pantone web site and I´m still getting this mismatch.
- Maybe the book is not updated ? I just bought the "Pantone Plus Series" this week - it´s the most update book of Pantone!).
Thanks in advance for your help!

Well, I think I found my answer. And it´s easier than I thought.
I contacted the Pantone suport and they just realize I was talking about other book.
I have the Pantone Color Bridge Books. But not the standard ones. I have the Plus Series (with the green cover). This is the most updated books from Pantone.
The Plus Series has different CMYK equivalents, because in this edition they unified the European and the North American CYMK standards.
And of course, because of that, the Adobe swatches libraries was outdated.
Then I just downloaded the new PANTONE PLUS Digital Libraries for Adobe on Pantone´s web site. Now I can pick the right color, just selecting the Pantone+ in the swatches libraries. Here is the link: http://www.pantone.com/pages/Pantone/Pantone.aspx?pg=20721 (you have to be a registered member to download it).
Now I have the same both CMYK coordinates from the book and from the Adobe conversion.
Thanks to everyone who tried to help!

Selecting Pantone Equivalents of Process Colours

I've searched through the forums, and I haven't been able to find anything beside a passing mention covering this topic (but I could be missing the magic word in my search).
On a regular basis, we receive artwork from clients that, although pretty, has not been streamlined for our printing process (flexographic), and as such, we generally need to tweak most everything that comes in. One of the more unpleasurable tasks is selecting PMS swatches to replace process colours.
Currently, we either flip through the Pantone Solid to Process Guide to find a match, or try to find a match in Illustrator by colouring swatches on-screen with different PMS colours until we find the one closest to out process target (and then take a boo in the Solid to Process guide just to be safe).
I really hope someone can make me feel like a dolt by pointing out an easy and reliable way to do this. Much thanks.

In CS3 select the objects you want to get the nearest spot color match.
 
 Then go to Edit>Edit Color > Recolor Art in the center bottom right of the color sliders there is a swatch icon you can select and swatch library you have in the swatches folder including color books for say Pantone.
 
 That will do it. You can save it as a group or can have it recolor the art or both.

CS5 Illustrator Pantone+Solid Coated library issue

Hello everyone,
I have a problem with CS5 Pantone+Solid Coated library.
In CS4 this library contained Spot CMYK colors.
In CS5 these colors are Spot LAB and darker.
Does anyone has the same problem?
Thanks

When I pick some PMS Coated color, in Color Panel last simbol is LAB.
In Color Swatches I can change one by one colors to CMYK mode, but they are the same dark.
The root issue is when I open Panton+Solid Coated menu - the colors are presented in LAB mode and they are darker then usial.
In CS4 this library was presented in CMYK mode and colors were right.
In CS5 these right colors are in Panton Solid to Process menu and if I create new artwork I pick colors from here.
But when I open old file (where colors are Pantone Solid Coated from CS4) they pick the colors from CS5 Panton Colid Coated menu and changed to darker colors.

CS5.5 & CS6 Spot to CMYK conversion not matching Pantone + Guide book

Hey,
I have both cs5.5 & cs6 indesign both of which are giving me different values of cmyk compared against the Pantone + guide, eg if I select pms 173C and convert to cmyk the values are not correct when I check the values in the book is there a way to fix this, other wise it will be highly annoying to have to manually put in the cmyk values for each job when matching spot colours for digital prints. Any help /suggestions or if there is any settings to change?
Cheers.
Jack.

In CS6 the Pantone solid libraries are always defined as Lab—as far as I can tell the Ink Manager's Use Standard Lab Values no longer has any effect.
So these libraries are now defined as Spot colors with Lab definitons–if you convert the spots to process via Ink Manager your document's CMYK profile makes a color managed conversion:
If for some reason you want a predefined CMYK mix (but for what press or device?) there is Color Bridge Coated and Uncoated—those colors are defined as process CMYK. So you could delete PANTONE 173 C and replace it with Color Bridge Coated PANTONE 173 CP.

3 Adobe Programs give me inconsistent numbers when covert to CMYK from Pantone Pantone+ Solid Coated?

3 Adobe Programs give me inconsistent numbers when covert to CMYK from Pantone Pantone+ Solid Coated?
I need help on figure out how to have exact number value when I use 3 programs, Adobe InDesign CS6, Illustrator CS 6,
And PhotoShop CS 6, and use PMS Swatch from Pantone+ Solid Coated in each program, and convert Pantone Color to CMYK,
the numbers are different significantly. I attached the example of how I converted PMS 424C to CMYK to illustrate.

In CS6 and later the conversion of Pantone+ Solids to CMYK is color managed (Lab to CMYK), so the document's assigned CMYK profile and the app's Color Settings Conversion Options (Intent and Black Point Compensation) affect the conversion numbers and have to be matched up.
So below the assigned profile is Coated Fogra39 with a Relative Colormetric Intent and BPC turned on (the slight differences are because of the way the 3 programs round):
I think InDesign has a problem with color conversions via the Color panel, so I'm showing the InDesign Sep Preview panel with All Spots to Process checked in Ink Manager on the right. Changing the document's CMYK profile assignment doesn't reliably produce the correct conversion via the Color panel—looks like a bug and I haven't checked CC to see if it's been fixed.
Here is what I get with a conversion via the Color panel. l'm not sure where these numbers are coming from but it's not the right conversion to Fogra39:
The tool bar's Color Picker does make the correct conversion, so I think the problem is limited to the Color panel
The simplest approach is to leave Pantone Solids as spot colors and use Ink Manager to make the conversion when you export or print.

Can I easily match Pantone colors using Illustrator?

Hi all,
I run a small invitation supply company.
Our primary design tool up until now has been Photoshop Elements.
We recently purchased a $6000 printer from Xerox which is the 'gold standard' for graphic arts and Pantone approved.
We also have a pantone color bridge. When I print a color using the hex code, the color looks NOTHING like the pantone swatch.
I contacted Xerox and they told me that because Elements has a very low degree of color management that we will never be able to easily color match our pantone swatches and that they aren't surprised the color is way off.
I suppose I naively figured that spending $6000 on a printer would get us easy and flawless color matching. Xerox says- not so.
They suggested investing in Illustrator and they are convinced that it will be much more likely to get us to the point that we want. Ultimately I want to be able to pick a color from the pantone deck, enter the code, and feel confident that the print will come out 100% the corresponding color.
Am I living a pipe dream?
I would like some feedback before proceeding.
On top of the financial investment, obviously there is a lot of time that my partner and I will have to spend learning Illustrator.
Any input would be great.
Thanks,
Aaron

Am I living a pipe dream?
Yes.
More precisely, you are just failing to understand the fundamental difference between spot color and process color.
I want to be able to pick a color from the pantone deck, enter the code, and feel confident that the print will come out 100% the corresponding color.
Not gonna happen, even if you do all the tedious color management setup you can.
The above assumes you are, in fact, talking about matching Pantone spot colors. (Pantone does not just publish spot color swatches, but that is the usual sense in which beginners refer to Pantone.)
A spot color is, by definition, an actual, physical, single ink which is loaded into a press. The only way to achieve your 100% pipedream is to load that actual, physical, single ink into your $6000 printer.
But that's how a printing press works, not how your $6000 printer works. It works by printing four "primary colors" of inks and then arranging tiny dots of them in proximity to each other in order to "trick" the eye into seeing them as a mixture of colors on the page in proportions which try to approximate the spot color as best it can.
But physical inks are simply not accurate enough to actually do that. There are many, many spot colors which simply cannot be replicated by mixing arrays of primary colors of inks. That's what all this "gamut" talk is about. That's one reason why spot color inks exist.
The Pantone spot color matching system is a means by which to consistently communicate proportional mixtures of actual, real, physical inks of known specific colors. All anyone (including Pantone) can do with the CMYK inks (or dyes) in a desktop printer is try to recommend percentages of those CMYK inks to best approximate a match to an actual, physical spot color ink.
It gets worse. Your monitor cannot actually match a spot color ink swatch, either. Your monitor glows. Ink doesn't. Even on tediously calibrated systems, there is more to perceived "color" than just numerical values of CMYK or RGB or HSL or Lab. There is chroma. There is reflectance. There is opacity. There is grain.
Then there's the whole matter of the incredibly context-sensitive adaptabability of human vision.
So if you are selling the output of your $6000 printer as the final product, you should not use Pantone spot color swatches as any kind of contract color specification, because your printer cannot actually print spot color inks. If you're doing color-critical work that the customer will refuse when specified colors don't match, you and your customer must specify colors which your device can actually produce.

Pantone+ Color Bridge Coated vs Pantone+ Solid Coated

In Illustrator CC-2014, why is there a difference in a solid colour for example PMS 123 when one is used from the Pantone+ Color Bridge Coated and the other from the Pantone+ Solid Coated Library.

The reason for the discrepancy is my last results was that while the Working Colour Space was changed from SWOP to SheetFed, it was over looked that the assigned profile remained to that of SWOP. In the screen shots below Working Colour Space and Assigned Profile are set the same. Printed results closely reflect to what I see on screen with the SheetFed Profile producing a better match in my opinion. Cheers

Cannot find the new pms colors Pantone + solid coated

I have a Pantone + Solid coated book that has 336 new colors in the back. Specifically pms 2028 C. The problem is when I try to find it in the PMS charts in Illi CS6 or PS CS6, those 336 new colors are not in my Pantone + Solid coated charts. I ran the adobe updates and it updated what it needed but I'm still unable to find it. Am I looking in the wrong chart? The name matches that of my PMS book so it just doesn't make sense. I scroll through the Illi chart and also try to use the "find" section. Any help is greatly appriciated. thanks Kyle

PMS 2028 (and the list you describe) are not in the current Pantone lists in Illustrator CC (or earlier AI versions).
But you can make a spot color of your own choosing, and call it whatever you want (such as Pantone 2028). You may need to fake or guess on the actual color (in RGB or CMYK), but if you're separating for an actual (non-digital) printing press, your faked color won't make any difference, as the proper ink formulation for your spot color is what actually goes on the paper when it is printed.
If you're not separating for a traditional printing press, then what is the point of needing a specific Pantone color? Other than being used for ink formulations on a (non-digital) printing press, Pantone is an old, useless model, attempting to extend its relevance beyond the pull-date by forming software alliances with such as Adobe, etc.
For non-traditional printing, rather, develop the colors you want according to your specific output device, be it a photo printer, CMYK digital press, etc. -- If you really "like" PMS 2028, then develop that color (probably in RGB/HSB) for your specific output device.
Lastly, if you are printing to an actual printing press, and also need the 2028 color in your pre-press (digital) proofs, then you will need to develop it for your proofer (your specific non-press output device), probably with the caveat to your client that it is a color "approximation." Then use any spot color (titled, "Pantone 2028") for separations, as the actual ink will provde accurate color.

Spot Pantone to CMYK processed with ease?

Hi,
I am placing a series of graphic art samples that consist of
Pantone spot colors into what will be a CMYK (processed color)
document for a presentation.
How can I convert all the samples that are Pantone assigned
color to CMYK easily?? Is there a broad selection sort of solution
because these are detailed & I don't want to have to
individually click each & every element by hand + click on the
color mixer to convert...that would take ages!
Surely you've got the answer? -- Thanks!

r_tist,
I'm very sorry, my advice to create a composite CMYK PDF via
the print
dialog does not work. I should have checked before I wrote
that. You are
correct. The Pantone spot colors will be preserved in the
PDF.
I'm fairly confident the PDF would print fine, as long as the
printer
selected 'separations' and 'convert all spots to process' in
the Acrobat
Advanced Print Setup. However, you'd be relying on someone
else to make sure
that happened.
I do know that Pantone solid colors will correctly output to
process
separations when 'print spot colors as process' is checked in
the FH print
dialog.
You may want talk to your print shop and see what kind of
file they would
prefer. Because they would know the characteristics of their
own press and
paper, they may want to do their own adjustments to convert
Pantone solid
colors to CMYK.

Do I need the Pantone Solids books anymore?

Anyone using Pantone Color Bridge swatch books which offers web and 4C process simulations of all spot colors? I haven't had a new pantone book in at least 15 years and decided this is the year I update.
My thinking is that since I rarely print spot color anymore, color bridge and the cmyk books (both in coated and uncoated) might be my best choice. However, though 90% of what I print is 4C digital or offset, people still request pantone colors not realizing that almost everything prints process. Pantone Essential includes spot, bridge and cmyk process. Basically, I'm on the fence regarding getting the pantone solids books which seems redundant these days in the age of short run digital printing as needed. I haven't printed LH, Env and BC solid offset in many years. Envelopes are just about the only thing I still print in PMS colors. But having said that, I print many many short run envelope jobs on my digital press (Ricoh 651EX).
I would appreciate any feedback, pro and con. Thanks.

people still request pantone colors not realizing that almost everything prints process...
Basically, I'm on the fence regarding getting the pantone solids books
I think designers often use the Pantone system as an alternate to color management, and that would work if they were always printing solid inks which of course they are not. So we see many threads about Pantone colors either printing or displaying incorrectly.
The Pantone Bridge colors are single CMYK process builds and how closely they simulate the solid ink printing in Pantone's solid ink formula guide, depends on the 4-color press conditions—the color builds are device dependent. It isn't clear what device or press conditions the Pantone Bridge colors target, but I would bet it's not your Ricoh 651EX. So you could print a Pantone Bridge swatch chart from your Ricoh 651EX and reference it rather than the Pantone solid swatch book and get more reliable color.
The alternative is to make color managed conversions from the Pantone Solid+ Lab (device independent) colors to your press profile. Whether that works depends on the accuracy of the press profile and the understanding that some colors or considerably out-of-gamut. Also using Ink Manager's Spots to Process to make the conversion can be problematic if the color is a tint. See this thread—Re: Ink Manager Bug/Problem?

Oversaturated prints not matching Pantone swatch

Head is melting with this HP lazerjet 2550L. Nothing prints as it should or matches Pantone swatches. All my prints are way too intense in colour but the odd thing is that my monitor matches exactly the pantones in the swatch booklet (which is new, not faded). Strangely enough, i have had some test prints done from a repro place and they the colour is the same as my printer! Can't figure out whats goin' on. ANY advice would be great, before i chuck it out the window. Thanks in advance.

Just because the monitor colours are close doesn't mean it is calibrated. I often find it is due to more good luck than proper CMS.
But more importantly when was the printer last calibrated? Does it use an internal visual cal or have you used a densitometer/spectro? And is the printer Pantone certified? A lot of colour LBP's struggle to get anywhere near the output of those ink-based swatches.
Regards,
Paul

ADOBE CYMK equivalent to Pantone chip does not match Pantone's numbers

Pantone assigns equivalent CMYK numbers to each of their spot color chips. And writes the CMYK numbers by their PMS spot color chip.
AI conversion within AI's dialogue box, not even close, when Adobe assigns the CMYK to a PMS.
Test it, so you see how far off this is:
PMS book has CMYK at C:0.0, M:6.0, Y:15.0, K:6.0
plenty more where that came from...
Yet Adobe offers their conversion function as a reliable tool? What is the fix for this?

Thanks John, here's what I'm getting on PMS 5777C:
CS6, Swatch Libraries > Color Books > Pantone & Solid Coated with conversion in that dialog box to CMYK: 0C, 31.76M, 100Y, 0K
CS6, Swatch Libraries > Color Books > Pantone & Color Bridge Coated with conversion in that dialog box to CMYK: 26C, 9M, 56Y, 20K
Your PMS book: Solid C ( 10C, 0M, 49Y, 28K
My PMS book, not a big deal off to your PMS book: Solid C 8.5C, 0.0M, 47.0Y, 27.5K

• Want my old "Pantone solid Coated" swatches.

Hello -
Since we made the update of Adobe® CC (coming from old CS5), lot of my colleagues complain
about the LAB pre-visualization of the PMS color (in color palette -> vs. CMYK before).
Is there a way, a place we are could download the old version of the "Pantone solid Coated" (thus not the "Pantone+" one).
NB. We don't really use this last new Pantone colors.
Thank you…
- Dimitri

Hello Monika -
Thanks for your advice…
I did it already, but the problem is that Illustrator (CC) won't let you the option to see the CMYK conversion. It shows the old PMS color with a small LAB icon (no more with a CMYK small icon).
Have a nice day…

Problème d'affichage des couleurs PANTONE solid Uncoated Différence entre les versions CS et CC ?

Bonjour à tous,
Je suis graphiste et travaille beaucoup en flexographie donc, sur illustrator et souvent avec des Pantones en U (PANTONE solid uncoated ou opaque non couché).
Sur mon ancienne version CS, lorsque j'avais mes couleurs Pantone U à l'écran, celles-ci apparaissaient comme les teintes en C (PANTONE solid Coated, généralement utilisées en Offset), ors, depuis la version CC, les teintes en U apparaissent "fade" voir complètement différentes.
L'affichage se fait mal et j'ai remarqué une chose : lorsque j'ai ma référence couleur sélectionnée (je prends comme exemple le Pantone 1797 U qui est un rouge vif) dans la fenêtre "couleur" (d'illustrator), sur les anciennes versions CS, à côté du carré de couleur il y avait le petit icône carré "CMJN" (qui est un carré divisé en 4 coul primaires) sauf que sur illustrator CC, il n'y a plus le petit icône "CMJN" mais l'icône "LAB" et effectivement, par défaut, la fenêtre couleur ne me propose plus l'équivalent CMJN mais LAB.
Ceci à une incidence sur la couleur car hier, j'ai reçu un document sur lequel la référence Pantone apparaissait correctement avec l'icône CMJN dans ma fenêtre "couleur". En ouvrant mon nuancier, je me suis aperçu que seule cette nuance importée avait cette équivalence CMJN. Toutes les autres nuances en ton direct de mon nuancier étaient en équivalence LAB (je ne sais pas à partir de quel version le document reçu a été fait). Le plus surprenant, lorsque j'ouvre un nouveau document et que j'importe le graphisme reçu en P.1797 U (avec la bonne teinte d'affichage), ce graphisme se remet en couleur d'affichage "fade" et erronée.
Avant avec la version CS : Pantone 1797 (en C ou en U) la conversion CMJN était : C0 M100 J100 N4 (ce qui est exact par rapport à un VRAI nuancier Pantone Color Bridge qui donne bien les bon % de CMJN
Maintenant avec la version CC : Pantone 1797 U = C13,52 - M80,34 - J59,29 - N1,31 (donc plus RIEN à voir avec la teinte d'origine) et en Pantone C idem : Pantone 1797 C = C11,65 - M91,01 - J76,32 - N2,06 (là aussi, cette conversion est fausse).
pour illustrer mes propos, j'ai fait des copies d'écran à partir du document reçu (avec Pantone 1797 U nickel) et (avec Pantone 1797 U actuel sur ma version CC) :
ma fenêtre "couleur" à partir du document reçu (avec Pantone 1797 U nickel) :
ma fenêtre "couleur" à partir d'un document créé sur mon ordi avec ma version CC avec le même ton direct prit sur mon nuancier PANTONE solid uncoated :
On peut s'apercevoir que l'icône en couleur (en dessous de 100%) est sur le 1er en CMJN par défaut et sur la deuxième image en LAB (le carré avec un rond grisé indique que c'est un ton direct).
Comment avoir PAR DÉFAUT l'équivalence en CMJN (comme sur la 1ere image) et non en LAB (voir 2ème image) ? Est-ce lié à la version CS ou CC ?
Comment résoudre ce pb d'affichage ?
Autres copies d'écran (avec un double clic sur ma couleur P.1797 U afin d'avoir les options), toujours à partir du document reçu et d'un document créé sur mon poste de travail :
- Sur le document reçu, la couleur s'affiche correctement et les indications sont : une conversion CMJN par défaut dans la fenêtre d'option de couleur :
VERSION OK avec couleur vive qui ressemble à la vraie teinte sur un nuancier Pantone papier.
- Sur mon document (créé sur mon poste de travail), la couleur s'affiche mal et les indications sont : une conversion LAB par défaut dans la fenêtre d'option de couleur :
et même si je passe en CMJN (dans le menu déroulant de l'option de nuance), le résultat est bien différent du document reçu. les pourcentages CMJN n'ont rien à voir avec la réalité ni avec les anciennes couleurs Pantone U :
Ce problème est le même dans Photoshop et dans InDesign : Dans les attributs de couleur (toujours en prenant le Pantone 1797 U), dans les palettes couleurs ou option de ton direct, etc, l'équivalence est en LAB par défaut... alors qu'elle était en CMJN sur les anciennes versions.
COMMENT RETROUVER CETTE ÉQUIVALENCE CMJN PAR DÉFAUT (dans la fenêtre couleur) à côté de la couleur Pantone choisie ???
Je ne parle pas du petit menu déroulant qui propose une conversion de la couleur Pantone en CMJN, RVB ou LAB. Je parle vraiment du mode de conversion par défaut en LAB (type info qui s'affiche sur la fenêtre "couleur" lorsqu'une couleur est sélectionnée)... POURQUOI CES INFOS SONT EN LAB PAR DÉFAUT ? J'aimerai avoir l'équivalent en CMJN comme sur les anciennes versions CS.
Attention, je ne parle pas non plus de la fenêtre "options de tons directs" ou il y a normalement possibilité de "choisir les définitions de couleur pour les tons directs du fabricant".... j'ai cliqué sur "utiliser les valeurs CMJN des catalogues quadri du fabricant"... D'ailleurs, même en cliquant sur l'autre option (en LAB), cela ne change rien à mon soucis d'affichage et au fait que le logiciel propose par défaut une équivalence en LAB dans la fenêtre "couleur".
Y-a-t-il un réglage à faire ou est-ce que la version CC est par défaut avec des infos "d'équivalence LAB" sur les couleurs ???
Je désespère un peu... beaucoup, svp help ! Cela me pose des soucis avec les BAT envoyés aux clients qui ne retrouve pas leur couleurs... J'ai beau expliquer que la teinte Pantone choisie s'imprimera correctement, ils ont du mal à comprendre et cela devient difficile lorsque je dois convertir des illustrations CMJN en Pantone U, je dois vraiment me base sur le nuancier papier, je ne peux plus me fier aux couleurs d'écran... embêtant quand même. Heureusement j'ai un nuancier Pantone color Bridge qui me donne les équivalence mais...
Merci d'avance si vous avez la réponse.

Hi
In CS 6 may be, but not in my CC... Even if I click on CYMK, the color
does not change and the equivalent is made in LAB by default (to see
small icon LAB on the "color" window next to the 1797U which stays by
default on LAB even if CMYK is marked) in " options of nuance ", the LAB
is by default.
Then, in " options of nuance ", if I make CMYK, here is the result
openly (frankly) nobody, no ?
I already had to try your system but it seems that CC does not want to
give me of good colors Pantone U in the screen.
Then, I know in the printing that my color will be printed well, no
worries but this display of screen is too bad it's a pity!
It is not a progress but that is the way it is it is CC !
Bye & thank's a lot for all
