Printing the PANTONE Color Chart from a Macintosh

To print individual pages from the PANTONE Color chart, use Acrobat Reader:

1.

To install Acrobat Reader, insert the printer’s CD-ROM in your computer’s drive, go to
the Utilities folder, and follow the on-screen instructions to install Acrobat Reader

onto your computer’s hard disk.

2.

Locate the Pantone files you downloaded from the web site and double-click the
desired PDF file.

3.

View and print pages from the PDF file. For best results, print on paper.

Note

Print only with the None color correction, since other settings cause PANTONE
Colors to print differently than expected. Refer to page 3 for more information.

For best results and truest color:

Print the chart on Phaser Premium Color Printing Paper.

Select one-sided printing when printing the color chart in order to reduce the
effects of color show-through.
