<p>Pantone began in New Jersey in the 1950s as the commercial <a href="Printer_(publishing)" title="Printer (publishing)">printing</a> company of brothers Mervin and Jesse Levine, M &amp; J Levine Advertising.<sup id="cite_ref-5" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-5"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>5<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup><sup id="cite_ref-6" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-6"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>6<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> In 1956, its founders, both advertising executives, hired recent <a href="Hofstra_University" title="Hofstra University">Hofstra University</a> graduate Lawrence Herbert as a part-time employee. Herbert used his chemistry knowledge to systematize and simplify the company's stock of <a href="Pigment" title="Pigment">pigments</a> and production of colored <a href="Ink" title="Ink">inks</a>; by 1962, Herbert was running the ink and printing division at a profit, while the commercial-display division was US$50,000 in debt; he subsequently purchased the company's technological assets from the Levine Brothers for US$50,000 (equivalent to $520,000 in 2024) and renamed them "Pantone".<sup id="cite_ref-7" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-7"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>7<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup>
</p><p>The company's primary products include the Pantone Guides, which consist of a large number of small (approximately 6×2&nbsp;inches or 15×5&nbsp;cm) thin <a href="Paperboard" title="Paperboard">cardboard</a> or <a href="Plastic" title="Plastic">plastic</a> sheets, printed on one side with a series of related <a href="Color_chart#Color_selection_chart" title="Color chart">color swatches</a> and then bound into a small "fan deck". For instance, a particular "page" might contain several yellows of varying <a href="Tint" class="mw-redirect" title="Tint">tints</a>. <sup id="cite_ref-8" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-8"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>8<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup>
</p><p>The idea behind the PMS is to allow designers to "color match" specific colors when a design enters production stage, regardless of the equipment used to produce the color. This system has been widely adopted by graphic designers and reproduction and printing houses. Pantone recommends that PMS Color Guides be purchased annually, as their inks become yellowish over time.<sup id="cite_ref-9" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-9"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>9<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> Color variance also occurs within editions based on the paper stock used (coated, matte or uncoated), while interedition color variance occurs when there are changes to the specific paper stock used.<sup id="cite_ref-10" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-10"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>10<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup>

<p>The Pantone Color Matching System is largely a standardized color reproduction system; as of 2019 it has 2161 colors. By standardizing the colors, different manufacturers in different locations can all refer to the Pantone system to make sure colors match without direct contact with one another.
</p><p>One such use is standardizing colors in the <a href="CMYK_color_model" title="CMYK color model">CMYK</a> process. The CMYK process is a method of printing color by using four inks—cyan, magenta, yellow, and black. A majority of the world's printed material is produced using the CMYK process, and there is a special subset of Pantone colors that can be reproduced using CMYK.<sup id="cite_ref-13" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-13"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>13<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> Those that are possible to simulate through the CMYK process are labeled as such within the company's guides.
</p><p>However, about 30% of the Pantone system's 1114 <a href="Spot_color" title="Spot color">spot colors</a> (as of year 2000) cannot be simulated with CMYK but with 13 base pigments (14 including black) mixed in specified amounts, called base colors.<sup id="cite_ref-patone2_14-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-patone2-14"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>14<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> Those 1114 colors included 387 colors with numbers 100 to 487 from 1975 and some lighter colors from 600 to 732 in 1991. The original four-digit colors introduced in 1987 were remapped into three digits.
</p><p>The Pantone system also later allowed for many special colors to be produced, such as metallics, fluorescents (neons) and pastels. There are 56 fluorescents from 801 to 814 (first 7 here are base colors, so called <a href="Dayglo" class="mw-redirect" title="Dayglo">Dayglo</a>) and from 901 to 942. Packaging metallics (previously premium metallics) are placed from 10101 to 10454 (54 of those added later, 354 altogether, 2 base colors Silver 10077 and Rose Gold 10412), while normal metallics are placed from 871 to 877 (first 7 here are base colors) and from 8001 to 8965. Pastels are from 9140 to 9163 with base colors being 0131, 0331, 0521, 0631, 0821, 0921 and 0961. While most of the Pantone system colors are beyond the printed CMYK gamut, it was only in 2001 that Pantone began providing translations of their existing system with screen-based colors. Screen-based colors use the <a href="RGB_color_model" title="RGB color model">RGB color model</a>—red, green, blue—system to create various colors. A lot of colors are outside <a href="SRGB" title="SRGB">sRGB</a>.<sup id="cite_ref-patoneRGB_15-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-patoneRGB-15"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>15<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> The (discontinued)<sup id="cite_ref-pantone.com_16-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-pantone.com-16"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>16<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> Goe system has RGB, <a href="CIELAB_color_space" title="CIELAB color space">LAB</a>, SPD values with each color and has 10 base colors while only 4 of those new: Bright Red, Pink, Medium Purple and Dark Blue. Other 6 were in the system before: Yellow 012, Orange 021, Rubine Red, Green, Process Blue and Black that in Goe were named Medium Yellow, Bright Orange, Strong Red, Bright Green, Medium Blue and Neutral Black. (PMS has 8 more basic base colors, some not monopigmented: Yellow 010, Red 032, Warm Red, Rhodamine Red, Purple, Violet, Reflex Blue, Blue 072.)
</p><p>Pantone colors are described by their allocated number (typically referred to as, for example, "PMS 130"). PMS colors are almost always used in branding and have even found their way into government legislation and military standards (to describe the colors of <a href="Flag" title="Flag">flags</a> and <a href="Seal_(emblem)" title="Seal (emblem)">seals</a>).<sup id="cite_ref-USCGHeraldry_17-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-USCGHeraldry-17"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>17<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> In January 2003, the <a href="Scottish_Parliament" title="Scottish Parliament">Scottish Parliament</a> debated a petition (reference PE512) to refer to the blue in the <a href="Flag_of_Scotland" title="Flag of Scotland">Scottish flag</a> as "Pantone 300". Countries such as <a href="Flag_of_Canada" title="Flag of Canada">Canada</a> and <a href="Flag_of_South_Korea" title="Flag of South Korea">South Korea</a> and organizations such as the <a href="F%C3%A9d%C3%A9ration_Internationale_de_l'Automobile" title="Fédération Internationale de l'Automobile">FIA</a> have also chosen to refer to specific Pantone colors to use when producing flags. US states including <a href="Texas" title="Texas">Texas</a> have set legislated PMS colors of their flags.<sup id="cite_ref-texascolors_18-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-texascolors-18"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>18<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup>

<p>On September 5, 2007, Pantone introduced the Goe System.<sup id="cite_ref-goesystem_19-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-goesystem-19"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>19<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> Goe consisted of 2058 new colors in a new matching and numbering system. In addition to the standard swatch books (now called the GoeGuide), the new system also included adhesive-backed GoeSticks, interactive software, tools, and an online community where users were able to share color swatches and information.
</p><p>The Goe system was streamlined to use fewer base colors (ten, plus clear coating for reflections, only 4 base colors were new) and accommodate many technical challenges in reproducing colors on a press.<sup id="cite_ref-patone2_14-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-patone2-14"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>14<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup>
</p><p>The Pantone Goe system was discontinued in November 2013, but four new base colors were added into PMS and some of new colors too, though those four base colors are harder to purchase.<sup id="cite_ref-pantone.com_16-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-pantone.com-16"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>16<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup>

<p>In mid-2006 Pantone, partnering with Vermont-based <a href="Fine_Paints_of_Europe" title="Fine Paints of Europe">Fine Paints of Europe</a>, introduced a new line of interior and exterior paints. The color palette uses Pantone's color research and trending and has more than 3,000 colors.
</p><p>In November 2015, Pantone partnered with Redland London to create a collection of bags inspired from Pantone's authority on color.
</p><p>Pantone also produced <a href="Hexachrome" title="Hexachrome">Hexachrome</a>, a patented six-color printing system.<sup id="cite_ref-21" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-21"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>21<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup><sup id="cite_ref-22" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-22"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>22<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> In addition to custom CMYK inks, Hexachrome added orange and green inks to expand the color gamut, for better color reproduction. It was therefore also known as a CMYKOG process. Hexachrome was discontinued by Pantone in 2008 when Adobe Systems stopped supporting their HexWare plugin software. In 2015 a 7-color printing system was developed, adding Violet in CMYKOGV, that can cover 90% of 1114 spot colors, while CMYK only about 60%. 1729 new colors were added, marked XGC (extended gamut coated), some colors do not have a number, like Process Blue XGC or Purple XGC.<sup id="cite_ref-23" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-23"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>23<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> Base colors of OGV were new mono-pigment inks, pigments PO34, PG7 and PV23 were used respectively with 58°, 180° and 311° hue angles.

In this case, Radiant Orchid descends from the purple family, which is kind of a magical color that denotes creativity and innovation. Purple is just that kind of a complex, interesting, attracting kind of color ... [The] back-story to purple is that it inspires confidence in your creativity, and we're living in a world where that kind of creative innovation is greatly admired. In the world of color, purple is an attention-getter, and it has a meaning. It speaks to people, and we felt that it was time for the purple family to be celebrated.
