How Many Pantone Colours Are You Missing
Since 2010 over 750 new colours have been added to the Pantone colour books, it is also important to note that Pantone books should ideally be replaced every 18 months as natural pigment fading, paper yellowing, page turning and low pigment colours can all affect figment fading.
