Color question (Pantone to PDF)
this more of adobe distiller question, i'll ask
anyways...
i whipped logo design client , love it. eyeballed
on-screen colors , told them they'll have sit down
pantone swatch book , pick specific colors want use.
they ended matching swatches on-screen colors picked ,
that's used.
i created pdf (press optimized) of said fh file. colors
completely different on-screen (though, obviously, correct
pantone colors , long printer isn't idiot, they'll fine
on t-shirts).
the question have why on-screen matched pantone colors not
match on screen when used?

as requested darrel, here best answer question. (i
didn't answer before because i'm not 100% able answer
facts , typically leave people are.)
the colors not matching because applications render
colors differently. can open same pdf in acrobat 4 , 8
well preview , 3 different color schemes. each program has
it's own method of rendering colors on screen. transfer
same pdf else's computer different monitor, different
video card , different operating system , you've got real mess.
there not guaranteed way deliver color on screen. if spend
some money , lot of time may able freehand, photoshop
and desktop printer agree (more or less) can forget
about else.
moral of story? never buy clothes online haven't seen in
person.
rich
p.s. on press, pantone or process, going color
variations. if printing t-shirt better white, because
the colors vary virtue of color printed on ,
different because of color next it.
