    Remember that a crisp pms color like 375 c really can't be reproduced in cmyk. If you really want the color to work on every medium try an other color. (check the pms colorbridge swatchbook).

    wtf..? i use 375C daily for corp ID. pretty much pure yellow-green. it's gotta be one of the easiest colors to reproduce in CMYK.. approx 40, 0, 100, 0.

    if you understanding basic color theory its not all that complicated.

    I understand color quite well thank you very much
    We used it (375c)for a corporate client and because the color is almost fluorescent you can't reproduce it exactly in cmyk and that we tested with multiple lithographers en printers so take that to the bank. Not only theory but experience tells us this. By the way 40-0-100-0 doesn't even look like 375 c check the process guide coated. and hold it next to the pms swatch.
