Good to know

What this feature does not do, so there are no surprises.

  • Pantone references are digital approximations. Techstyles is not an official Pantone integration. Confirm colors with physical swatches or lab dips.
  • Screen colors vary by device. Use the code, not the screen, when you brief the mill.

No. The references are digital approximations of Pantone TCX codes. Use them to say which color you mean, then confirm with physical swatches or lab dips.

Yes. Pick a color from a picture or from the library, name it, and reuse it across products.
