Designations of the Pantone product range for printing inks:

• Since autumn 2019: Pantone Graphic+Print
• 2010 to 2019: Pantone PlusSeries
• Before 2010: PMS Pantone Matching System

The latest products are based on the Pantone Matching System (PMS) introduced in 1963 with the classic Pantone printing inks. This color palette has since been continuously extended and supplemented with modern trend colors. All the reference colors in the Pantone Plus Series are printed color samples, and the color impression is always dependent on the substrate. The color samples are therefore supplied on two qualities of paper:
c = coated printing paper - application: color leaflets, catalogs, etc.
u = uncoated paper - application: headed notepaper, manuals, printing on copier paper.
m = matt coated, products were removed from the program in 2010
