What does PMS mean?
Often referred to as PMS, the Pantone Matching System is the most popular color matching system in the printing industry. PMS is considered SPOT COLOR. A true PMS color is defined by a mixture of inks that will provide a specific color (e.g. PMS185 is a common bright red). Pantone, PMS and the Pantone Matching System are trademarks of Pantone, Inc.
