Combined, the new PantoneLIVE ColorBook and Viewer plug-ins give designers and brand owners an enhanced experience that not only permits access to digital color libraries, but also lets them preview how colors will appear on various substrates for an early and realistic view of what is achievable in production.

This allows users to make smarter decisions by eliminating costly review cycles and reducing the aggravation of trying to resolve unmet color expectations during production.

The plug-ins, developed in collaboration with Esko, are compatible with Adobe Creative Suite 5 and 5.5 on Apple OS or Windows XP and Windows 7 operating systems. Support for Adobe Creative Suite 6 is expected in summer 2013.

About PantoneLIVE

PantoneLIVE is a cloud-based solution that enables the universal PANTONE Color language to be accurately communicated across the entire packaging workflow – from design concept to retail store shelves. PantoneLIVE extends the PANTONE PLUS SERIES Color Library, mapping critical color information to packaging-specific substrates.

The PantoneLIVE ecosystem is supported by licensed hardware and software that enables each area of a packaging supply chain to access the same PantoneLIVE Colors, in addition to brand specific palettes. This results in consistent and repeatable color across product families, regardless of media or print technology, providing a cohesive brand approach.
