PMS #8

Might be a bit tricky to do but it would be cool if it had PMS colours too to help print producers understand a digital palette.

Hey, @custa1200, thanks for the idea! I don't find a lot of cases where Sketch is used for printing, do you? Maybe it could be an interesting approach for the next release.

The thing is, you can only aproximate the hex to PMS color value, am I right?...

Pantone requires a Pantone printed swatch book and eye matching. Pantone is a standardized color system and computer screens are not :/

This would not work really well and would cause a lot of color inconsistency.

Get a Pantone book and match the colors by eye (in the daylight).

On second thought it might be harder than thought. Might require a lookup/mapping from Pantone and no doubt licensing.

Yep, looks a little too complex and outside the goals of this plugin. But thanks for the idea, keep them coming!

If you don't mind, I'm gonna close this Issue ;)
