PANTONE® Guides and Chips for Print

These are the currently available PANTONE^® Solid Formula and Process Guides for print design. See the sidebar for additional information on choosing and using swatch books and sources for purchasing these and other Pantone guides. Note that in 2004 all guides were updated to use "heavier, brighter coated paper and brighter, flatter matte paper most favored by design professionals." This may cause some color differences between chips from 2003 and those from 2004.
