    No. PMS colors are pre-mixed inks. The good thing about them is that they duplicate well, as well as being considered 1 color. Printers charge for each color used. So, if you want to print a color photo, that would be four colors (C=Cyan M=Magenta Y=Yellow, K=Black.) This is how printing works. But, for instance, logos should always be designed using a pms color because they will always match, and keep BC cost down. Easy enough to convert it to CMYK.
