Arrow Solved: PMS Colours - What Are They?
What exactly are PMS colours? I have a selection of numbers (618, 605, 5865), which are PMS colours apparently, but I'd like to see what they look like?

Is there someone in Adobe PhotoShop that I can enter those to see what colour they represent?

Thanks!

And Photoshop does have Pantone palettes..it's worth checking the Pshop help files for Pantone which explains what they are and how you can select them. When you're viewing a Pantone palette you can find the numbers you're referring to and see what the colours look like.

From memory, the Pantone refs you mention are in the yellow/beige/brown area - but you'd need to check that.
