Hi, Everyone -
I'm doing a small job for a client, and need to match their official color, which is Pantone 377. She gave me CMYK numbers as well: 47-7-76-0.In Photoshop, entering those CMYK values in the color picker produces a much lighter green than I am seeing in their printer materials, and lighter than what I'd like to use.
When I go to the Color Libraries and choose Pantone Solid Uncoated, and enter 377, I get the deeper color I want but the numbers are quite different (60-27-95-8, hex 708f41).
I went online to the Pantone Color picker and entered 377, I got the deeper green with the same hex number but a different CMYK value again, however it is somewhat similar to the CMYK values my client gave me (45-0-100-24)
I am confused. Why all the variation? I'll end up choosing the deeper green but I don't get all the different numbers.
