| 3. Is there a difference in the Pantone textile system colours between the codes TP and TPX? |
| Yes, there are differences between the colour systems. The letter X at the end tells it is a colour from the latest system (=extended range), updated in 2003. If you are still using the TP system, you should upgrade to TPX. |

| 5. What does the “C,” “U” or "M" following the colors represent, i.e., PANTONE 185C, PANTONE 248U, etc.? |
| The PANTONE formula guide is printed with the same color references (or formula) on coated, uncoated and matte paper. The suffix indicates the type of paper the color is printed on. "C" for coated paper, “U” for uncoated paper and “M” for Matte coated paper. For a given color, e.g. PANTONE 185 C vs. PANTONE 185 U vs. PANTONE 185 M, the ink formula is identical. The visual difference is caused by the ink reaction to the substrate. |

| 7. Where can I find RGB and HTML information for PANTONE MATCHING SYSTEM® Colors? |
| PANTONE COLOR BRIDGE COATED, the replacement for the popular PANTONE solid to process guide coated released in April 2005, displays PANTONE spot colors side-by-side with the closest CMYK simulation, on coated paper. As a value-add to the new product, we now include sRGB and HTML data for the PANTONE solid colors, as well as the CMYK simulation values that reproduce the simulated PANTONE color, based on the workflow outlined in the copy pages of the Guide. |

| 8. I have been given a Pantone Colour numer, but am a user of the RAL and the NCS colour systems. How do I find the closest match between the colours in these systems. |
| This kind of cross-reference chart is unfortunately not available from Pantone nor Urban View. Please compare the colours manually using any colour chart from a Pantone system. |
