Feels like these folks making digital directories of Pantone colors don’t really understand how Pantone colors work.
Or they do, maybe, but a digital directory doesn’t really solve this new licensing issue in any way. Are they just lashing out? A fuck you to Pantone?
I don’t get it

- i think you just remove the word 'pantone' and don't distribute it with the software and hey prestokingsteven
- Elitism? Huh? It’s just designers trying to get the color right. Without a swatch book or chips, it’s all a waste of timenb
