    another print question.

    So all these libraries are the onlyones that can be used if you want to design for print?

    I mean those are the only true colors that printers can reproduce?

    Just wondering..

    no.. pantones# are just used for spot colour printing, when you are using just a limited number of specific colours.. (like a corporate ID package, screenprintingjobs, etc etc).

    if the print job is 4 colour process/ CMYK (like a magazine) the you can pretty much make any colour using CMYK inks.
