When you work in the graphic arts business you use Pantone as a reference when referring to a specific color. Labels, t-shirts, decals and just about anything with ink or color can be referenced to Pantone.
I've always heard it as "pan - tone" (think "cooking music") but I could be wrong.

I see we have either printers of designer on board. Pantone is a color matching system using color mixing fomulas (PMS - Pantone Matching System). A little red here and little yellow there = orange, (not quite that simple).Originally Posted by C6BOB

Interesting. I have yet to see a C6 logo that is blue. That must be some special order.Originally Posted by 2005ArcticWhite

Chances are that the C6 logo isn't in the pantone catalogue. Quite often companies develop their own signature colors and trademark them. For instance, I work for Pedigree dog food and we have a couple different shades of "Pedigree Yellow" that we had specially developed and Pantone has no chip for. You may find a pantone chip on either the lighter or darker side of the C6 logo color, but may never match.(this includea the black and the white) I'll take my chipset to the logo at my desk and let you know.
