| 159235 | 2003-07-13 00:53:00 | The RGB values for PMS 500 is: Red 133 Green 176 Blue 198 Using these values you should get the correct colour. You can select RGB values under Custom colours. |

| 159237 | 2003-07-13 01:01:00 | Personally I cant think of an easy way to incorporate PMS550 into word . By specifying 550 you obviously want that exact shade and this poses a number of problems . You would need to ensure that your monitor has been calibrated to replicate colour accurately . A quick and dirty method could be to use the colour chart at artpronto ( . artpronto . com/ArtPronto/pms_color_chart_2 . htm" target="_blank">www . artpronto . com) and adjust the colour balance of your monitor until 550 matches the PMS book . An alternative would be to purchase the software from Pantone (http://www . pantone . com) themselves . I notice that they have a number of specials on at the moment :) Perhaps if you copy the page from artpronto and import it into Paint you could use the syringe to obtain their version to create an image of this colour and import that into your word doc . Just some thoughts . . . . |
