How to match a Pantone Color to a RGB or CMYK Color

In this video I will demonstrate how you can find all of the color profiles in your logo for your brand style sheet (RGB, CMYK, Pantone, Hex#) in Adobe Illustrator.

Find me on Pinterest for more design and branding ideas.

not anymore, you'll have to pay the pimps at pantone now to get those colors

Great video, thank you!! Just a question, do you have to clear out your existing swatches before you start, or is that optional?

& Once you have the colour profiles for Print (the Pantone &/or CMYK), do you just export those files into the various file formats that are needed, ex. PNG, PDF, etc., like normal?

Thanks soo much!!

This not works if I have the file in CMYK, right?
Is only possible on RGB .AI files...

Let's say I choose a Pantone 300 C color from the color books in Illustrator. What's the best way to convert or match that color to a CMYK and RGB color? I can't find it online...

Thank you!
My biggest confusion was should I start in RGB mode or in CMYK to define colors but i forgot that you can duplicate the color scheme and easily switch the mode from RGB to CMYK without affecting other colors!

One of the most accurate and simple videos on this topic among the Russian-English YouTube. Thank you very much for your work!

do you know if I can use the pantone solid coated to convert RGB to Pantone colours for printing on fabric like cotton?
