Give me the CMYK!!!

__prepress · 16 years ago

This is worth $2 to have the CMYK breakdown of a PMS color. Kinda neat to have it suggest the closest Pantone coated/uncoated based on what you select or enter. Crashed a couple times when I tapped a bit too much. (This app needs to be caressed.)

Please give us CMYK!

When making the comparison please give us the CMYK formula as well along side with the RGB. It would also be nice to see the ink formula like in the printed guide. This has potetial ;-)

garbage - an utter waste of money.

Ive now tried 20 different colors from all the different libraries, and held my iphone up to the real-world swatchbooks: NONE OF THEM are close enough to the actual swatch for color matching. And it doesnt even give CMYK equivalents for spots, or if it does, I cant tell how to get them. Bad interface, libraries are hidden in different submenus, for some reason you open one color and it gives you an equivalent in a library you have no intention of using side by side. I want my money back!

Just What I Needed

Earthling Dreams · 15 years ago

I needed a reference tool and this is great. This app does give CMYK breakdowns. Wouldnt it be great if reviewers tried to learn how an app works before posting complaints! Example for getting CMYK breakdown: 1) Set PANTONE Color Guide to PANTONE solid coated. 2) Set Color to (X) X in this case being Pantone 3135C. 3) Set X-Ref PANTONE Guide to PANTONE COLOR BRIDGE coated. 4) You should now see the PANTONE swatches for PANTONE 3135 C and PANTONE 3135 PC - Simply click directly on one of these colors and voila! RGB & HTML breakdowns for PANTONE 3135 C and RGB & HTML & CMYK breakdowns for PANTONE 3135 PC. Click on the color again to zoom in closer. To create a CMYK color and find a PANTONE match - just set the PANTONE Color Guide to CMYK/RGB/HTML, which is at the bottom of the list in step 1) and create your color in the Color field by entering specific cmyk info and press save. Your new color is now matched to the closest PANTONE determined by which system is set in step 3) above. Im using a touch, so Im not concerned how the camera may or may not function. Though for Ipod Touch users - 5 stars! Two bucks and some folks are still complaining. Geesh!!!

Great app for graphic designers. Finding CMYK, HTML, and RGB equivalents/recommendations for spot PMS colors is really helpful. Easy to use once you figure it out. Great app. Great price.

Good idea, poor execution...

KCinMN · 15 years ago

Great idea in theory but didnt work as expected. I was hoping to use this to evaluate a PDF and figure out, based on the CMYK values, what PMS colors the client had originally referenced. So I entered the CMYK value of a color, which turned out to be straight out of the Pantone Color Bridge, and selected the Color Bridge as my target and it gave me a different color. It did this repeatedly. You would think that if the CMYK value entered was an exact match to the CMYK value in the Color Bridge it would just give you that color...
