Pantone to RGB??? Anyone help!

OK, a client has given me a Pantone code: 281
They say they want their site "that kind of colour" :rolleyes:

How on earth do I find out the RGB or CMYK colour of Pantone 281 ?????

Thanks if ya can help :)

If you're one of those people that has tons of cash you could pick up a pantone to process color guide...

If not, all I do is select that color in photoshop (pantone 281) the using the eyedropper, look at the RGB values... in this case R=0 G=34, B=97.

Now you'll have to let you're client know that this color could change dramatically depending on who's looking at it and how their monitor is set up... on a mac it will be way lighter, a pc way darker etc...

Hope this helps.... basically if you have a swatch of the color just eyeball it (at the screen configuration you design at for the general populous)

I agree, Photoshop is the best way to go.

Thanks for the help! :)
