> Hi all,

> a client sent me his color guide containing the color 
> definitions he uses for logos, graphical objects, etc.
> 
> He uses mainly the following blue and purple definitions :
> 
> . PANTONE  5395 C (dark blue) / CMYK (100, 44, 0, 76)
> . PANTONE 5425 C (light blue) / CMYK (30, 4, 0, 31)
> . PANTONE 246 C (purple) / CMYK (29, 90, 0, 0)
> 
> I have created a line in Adobe illustrator using the Pantone 
> 246 C colour and imported it in the reference pages of my 
> FrameMaker doc to use it as a graphical frame to be called by 
> a paragraph tag ("frame below"...not sure, I'm using a French 
> version).
> 
> When I print to pdf, the colour of the line matches perfectly 
> that of the company logo, which is imported as .eps in my template.
> 
> Now, I have created a paragraph tag. I want its color to be 
> identical to that of the line and logo, which is PANTONE 246 
> C. I have looked into the FrameMaker colour library and found 
> a Pantone 246 CVC, which is, as I have read here and there, 
> identical to 246 C but for computer video, whereas the 246 C 
> is for coated paper printing. 
> 
> In CMYK terms, the two colors are different, since one (246 
> C) is CMYK (29, 90, 0, 0) and the other (246 CVC) is CMYK 
> (30, 91, 0, 0) but on the FM interface, they look identical. 
> So so far so good, I have set the color of the pragraph tag 
> to Pantone 246 CVC.
> 
> The problem is that when I print to pdf, the colours are different...
> 
> Where can the problem come from. From my Adobe job options? 
> The manuel won't be printed, only read on screen: which 
> option or which Adobe PDF color settings am I supposed to use?
> 
> Thank you very much for your help,
