As someone who’s been in the industrial/manufacturing printing industry for nearly 20 years Pantone is a double-edged sword. I’ve worked on printing equipment from flexography to digital. Using hand mixed ink to apply onto aluminum cans at 2200 cans a minute to digitally controlled print heads to print on paper at 1000 feet a minute. The end-company uses Pantone as a weapon to hold you accountable to match pre-approved standard’s within certain tolerances within the gamut. We use scanners that digitally read the color and it compares to the targeted color ‘window’. However the end-company refuses to buy their own scanners and uses the naked eye to compare then they complain and then ask for discounts on their production runs.

Then you need color management software to actually provide accurate printing (along with a scanner to get printing data via test charts). You also have to make sure colors are in gamut, so you can actually print them, otherwise finding a good alternative (done with color management tools, using color models like CIELAB). All Pantone does is "protect" people from the "scary" numbers that actually define the color in relation to other colors, and provide a way to measure them. TLDR: If your color knowledge is limited to Pantone, you're not going to accurately print the colors you want. If you have the knowledge needed to accurately print colors, Pantone is just an unnecessary extra step.

How do they print the swatches?

The reason that Pantone can have a color gambit that is bigger than RGB or CMYK is that you can print things with either process colors which are CMYK, or you can use a spot color where the ink is formulated specifically for that color. When it’s really important to have the exact color the printing might actually have CMYK process colors plus additional channels for a spot color that would be specified by Pantone. This works because the pigments in the CMYK process inks have certain characteristics and only mix so well, but if you’re making a spot color you have all kinds of pigments that you can use to make that color exactly perfect.

Also why hexchrome was all the rage a number of years ago. Adding orange and green to the mix greatly increased process gamut. How the halftone dots are created (dot gain) can have a significant impact on color. Finally, every color expert's nemesis - metamerism. How colors can appear the same or different depending on the conditions. A big trap for all you young players - a D50 light source is not 'daylight'. Wish Sam would properly displayed the color charts - which are three dimensional. Actually three axis - R-G, B-Y, light-dark. It's not how most people think of with RGB. Hence CIE L*a*b space can be so useful. It better matches human perception.

Often, if you inspect the (box) packaging for various products you can find a row of color swatches they used to print the branding onto the box which includes the base CMYK plus a few spot colors -- for example, if the box is primarily red, CMYK "red" is a compound color so instead a spot red is used when printing.

About 15 years ago I was driving a truck for a courier company. One of our clients wanted me to pick up 13 pallets of parts that they had just sub contracted out to be painted and bring them back to them. The parts were for John Deere. When I got to the location, I called the guy and told him the parts weren't right and asked him what I should do. Technically it wasn't my problem, but they were good clients and I wanted to do right by them. The color was _obviously_ not John Deere green. He told me that it wasnt just 13 pallets, the whole order was not like 50 pallets of parts. I just got 13 because that is all that fit in my truck. Unfortunately for them, the only company capable of stripping the powder coating in time for them to make their deadline was clear on the other side of the city. Probably a 40 mile drive. I spent all week ferrying John Deere parts from the powder coater to the furnace, to the powder coater, and back to our client. I probably made like $4000 on just that one screw up. Haha.

The thing is that Pantone is basically the calibration system. Not just for monitors, but for everything. LTT has a nice video on their large collection of plastic swatches. Because Pantone doesn't just have paper books. They also have trays of coloured plastic, as well as nylon and cotton. And some other stuff as well I think. So say you want to make a plastic cup with a specific colour. You look through all the coloured plastic bits, and pick one you like the most. You then tell your manufacturer that's what you want. They then need to have the same set, and can tweak their printer or colour mixer to match it exactly, even though the hexcode input might not match. Because each printer or colour mixer will give you a slightly different colour for the exact same hexcode.

4:07 rip to everyone watching this at night

Love it when clients can't accept that the bright, neon colour they've chosen on screen can't be replicated by a standard digital printer using CMYK. And it's common from graphic designers these days too because so many are only learning about designing for screen, and not for print, but they still expect the same visuals in print without paying for it through the use of the premium inks and equipment required.

The video does a good job explaining how Pantone is used on the consumer end, ex you can specify a color you want and tell your printer or digital designer or whoever to match that color. That's only half the process, and generally not the folks that will buy swatch books. At the printing end, every machine prints a little differently, and also varies when printing on different materials. the coffee mugs at the end are almost a real thing. I've got several at the shop that have a grid of squares with CMYK values bumped by one point in each square, used to calibrate the printer to the Pantone.

Been watching you for years. The 3 second "half as mug" bit was one of the funniest things I've seen in a while.

There's also a non-profit called RAL in Germany who does the same or similar thing to Pantone, the problem is that their swatches are also expensive. So it's not just because Pantone wants to make a lot of money only, but also colour is hard to reproduce on different materials and places

There are plenty of reasons. The easiest one would be trademark. Which, unlike patent, doesn't have expirations but has validations. If your use of mark is inconsistent, you can't establish familiarity, which is the basis for a valid mark. If somebody somewhere apply the mark more consistently than you; they can invalidate your mark and took it as their own. Since mark is (theoretically) eternal, maintaining it is actually far cheaper than foregoing quality control and risk losing your brand. To give a simple examples, I know for a fact that someone who aren't blind will see fanta orange or facebook blue as I did. Basing brand this way (on color consistency) is easier by nature of our species. Although some brands prefer the use of typography (so they can have more color options for their products) and make do with its limitations.

I have show, i have had whole college physic classes on color, ink and light. Then if you are feeling a little daring, you go into colors of different ink/paint from different colors of light.

I feel strangely called out.

The artist Stuart Semple occasionally sells paints on his website designed to mimic the trademarked colours of a few companies (eg Tiffany) that have been seen as over-aggressively defending their colour trademarks to the detriment of art and artists. Same guy that responded to Anish Kapoor's exclusive licence to Vantablack by inventing an even blacker paint and selling it cheaply to anyone who wants it _except_ Anish Kapoor.

Instead of "RGB", I presume you meant to say "sRGB". There is more than one RGB colorspace and each has its own gamut. For example: sRGB/BT.709, Adobe RGB, DCI-P3, BT.2020. When you say that a device can only produce "1/3 of the colors the human eye can perceive", it again looks like you are presuming an sRGB device (though I'm not sure where that "1/3" number came from - there are many ways to quantify coverage ratios between colorspaces/gamuts). But nowadays there are many so-called "wide-gamut" devices out there that can produce a much larger gamut, often close to DCI-P3. In particular, most HDR devices are also wide-gamut devices, mostly because HDR video specs allow for larger gamuts (up to BT.2020). The fundamental reason why a printed color will generally not look the same as a color on a display has less to do with additive vs. subtractive and more to do with the fact that displays produce their own light, which means they will produce the same color stimuli regardless of ambient illumination; that is not true of a print, which merely reflects ambient light and is therefore affected by it. To be able to accurately compare ("proof") colors between display and paper, you'd have to control for the illuminant of the ambient light (e.g. specify that the print has to be looked at under a D50 illuminant). And of course you have to control for luminance too.

I'm pretty confident he meant sRGB, on the basis that sRGB is still very much the default RGB colour space both for general discussions about colour spaces and a lot of consumer hardware. Even if a monitor technically supports a wider gamut many are configured to default to sRGB just as a known good configuration without knowing the user's graphics settings, and HDR is still pretty spotty for streaming services

With some new knowledge, I don't really see CMYK as a subset of RGB anymore. Basically CMYK has a huge range of very dark colors that can't be represented in RGB, and the brightness of CMYK is arbitrary so the RGB value can also vary. There's really no way to know the exact color any CMYK value would represent so when designing, it's either matching the samples or make a few guesses.

It's not that CMYK itself isn't reproducable on screens accurately, it's that physical printing and screens simply have different physics for showing the colors. CMYK is just used for 4/4 printing. That's it. You will get way more varying results trying to print something in RGB and letting the printer convert the colors. That's why you use CMYK to assign the specific values to get an accurate result. Pantone does not use these 4 inks, they use their own mixture.

Here comes the stock footage

2:03 PMS is for sure a product but that's a whole different conspiracy (ask any girl)

Color calibration on computers is a whole separate thing. The only way the pantone chart shows correctly on a monitor is if the monitor is calibrated correctly.

Begging the larger question, How Illegal Can You Make Art?

That's because there are only seven colors with a name. Do a google image search for "colors men vs women". I mean common: banana is a fruit, not a color.

Well we should also mention that one time where Adobe and Pantone didn't agree on extending their licensing and as a result of that all pantone colors used in Illustrator or InDesign were converted to black. That's the problem with having a singular and capitalist provider of consistent color coding.

I use PMS (pantone matching system) inks at work every day as an offset pressman

You know you're an artist when you can tell even the slightest hue shift apart for another color

I use the RAL K7 (RAL CLASSIC) swatch, as I can order RAL colors exactly by it. Funny thing: the buses in London are Pantone 485 (according to this video) and the buses (and trolleybuses and trams) in Bratislava are RAL 3020. The conversion table for Pantone 485 claims two RAL colors to be "identical": RAL 2002 and RAL 3020. So you see, there are more standards than Pantone. RAL 3020 is also used on Firefighter trucks here in Central Europe, as well as Rolling stock of some Raiolway operators. No wonder it is called "Traffic Red".

Yes RAL's were made with powder coating and varnishing in mind, while pantones are made with printing in mind. Different tools for different jobs.

How does Internet exist without power as that something that I like to know as seem that two related yet you can have internet using only battery backup for long as battery last as I know two are separate when going to most home but do need power to have internet be active. So how can you have Internet access with a blackout.

Heinz: ketchup can only be red. this specific shade of red Also Heinz: makes green and purple ketchup

Are those Pantone colors as dots on packages that show what colors were used to print said package?

There is a board game called "hues and cues" where you give clues to try to get people to guess a specific color from ~420 options

The colour on the left is FBE120 (251, 225, 32) on the right is FBE122 (251, 225, 34).

Glad to finally see someone pointing out how legitimately useful pantone is.

"What does Pantone... pant-own?" Audience: Pant-groans

4:25 for example the pictures of LEGO bricks that are colored "dark turqoise" look diffrent then how they look like in real life

It doesn't beg the question, it raises the question.
