I thought you already went through this in another thread?

Envelopments® Matte Cardstock

 

I would put a color into your program, print it out, and if you don't like it, start to tweak a little and reprint.. you can actually create a full page of squares and have the color different on each square by adding a little cyan or whatever your printer uses.

 

Home printers aren't color calibrated to professional color profiles so every time you print it could vary a little..

 

If your paper supplier gives you a PMS match (see attached) you can put in that number and then tell your program to convert to CMYK or RGB.

 

If you're having something professionally printed they should/may have a swatch book for you to look at before you tell them which color to use.

I did go through this. I did print about a 100 little circles of different blues in RGB, CMYK, and even Pantone.

I know what color I want - I want Pantone Uncoated 3115U, 3125U, and possibly 3105U, or 3135U. The only color I can match is 3135U, but it is really pretty dark to go with red.

When I tried printing after setting my Publisher doc to Pantone colors, the colors did not much the Pantone colors at all. I just thought maybe if I got people's codes I can try entering them for more trial and error. So so so tired!
