Adding a spot color
In this section, you’ll see how to open a color library, such as the PANTONE color system, and
how to add a PANTONE MATCHING SYSTEM (PMS) color to the Swatches panel.
- Choose Window > Swatch Libraries > Color Books > PANTONE+ Solid Coated.
The PANTONE+ Solid Coated library appears in its own panel.
Type 137 in the Find field. As you type, the list is filtered, showing a smaller and smaller range
of swatches.
Click the swatch PANTONE 137 C, beneath the search field to add it to the Swatches panel for
this document. Click the X to the right of the search field to stop the filtering.
Close the PANTONE+ Solid Coated panel.
