Colours/Label Film Data
4.6. Colours
Sony DADC uses the Pantone Matching System
(PMS).
Please mark each label film with the Pantone colour
number requested by you. Please select your colour
from the Pantone Colour Selector 1000, except for
double impression (2x) colours.
When using Pantone colours 801 to 814, preprint-
ing should be carried out with white colour in order
to achieve the luminescent effect similar to the
Pantone Colour Selector 1000.
When producing your films please mind that a base
of polycarbonate with reflecting aluminium coating
is printed and therefore there may be colour deviat-
ions compared to printing on paper.
To provide (as much as possible) a compliance of
the colours of printwork (e.g. booklets) with the
DVD label printing, we advise to preprint a full
white base on the DVD.
