RGB is a color gamut of light using red, green, and blue to render colors onscreen. If you were to look close at a CMYK print, you would see a combination of overlapping dots- where if you were to look closely at a PMS print, you would see solid color. A combination of four transparent ink colors (cyan, magenta, yellow, and black) are used to achieve a wide gamut of colors to create the appearance of full-color. PMS colors are used for offset printing and are typically used for one or two-color print jobs, or in addition to CMYK on high-end print jobs.ĬMYK, used in the print world for full-color jobs, is also referred to as four-color process printing.

The Pantone® Formula Guide provides a full list of PMS colors and is used by both designers and printers to assure color accuracy. Pantone® is known worldwide as the standard language for color communication in the printing world. In this article, we’ll help you understand color matching and what each color system is used for so you can better communicate with your designers and printers for the most consistent color possible. When creating a brand, we start by choosing PMS colors, but that’s just one piece of the process. Color plays a huge role in branding and keeping consistency across all platforms is crucial to any successful brand.
Any successful business knows the importance of having a complete brand guide that details logo usage, fonts, language, and the colors tied to their brand. In the massive world of print and onscreen design, we rely on three main color systems: PMS (Pantone® Matching System), CMYK, and RGB/HEX.
