I agree with pisces69. The idea of choosing a Pantone color off of an RGB device is meaningless. That’s why you need the printed swatch. However, if the app told you both the CMYK values that Pantone currently used plus the CMYK’s that common design apps used, it would be very useful. For instance Pantone currently has orange 021 C at 68M100Y, quark 7 & 8 send it as 68M100Y, new Fierys render it as 68M100Y but CS4 still uses 53M100Y. That would be helpful.
This app isn’t for choosing colors; it’s for capturing a notion of a color. There’s no intent to do color matching. This is a tool for remembering color. (You can send yourself email–or others–with Quark, etc., import files which you could then adjust.)
Considering an actual Pantone swatch book runs $100-150 (each…i.e. coated, uncoated, etc.)…I think the price is great. Sure it’s not a 100% substitute for the real thing…but with everything it does, it’s a bargain, and extremely useful/helpful.
Sure it is a neat app, but I think the price is a little high.
Looks interesting for a designer that needs to develop color schemes or themes, and perhaps the web designer working in RGB, but it would be great if there were CMYK formula conversions like in the Bridge booklets. Any graphic arts professional knows it’s not a visual representation of a subtractive color model, but it would be tremendously helpful to our side of the color community to have the CMYK formula reference at our fingertips.
