When you have the AH Formatter PANTONE^® Option^[11] you can specify more than 1,000 PANTONE^® colours by name and have them print as a spot colour or be converted into the correct RGB or CMYK for rendering or printing.

When the formatted document is commercially printed, each PANTONE^® colour can have a separate printing with the specific ink for that PANTONE^® colour. The grayscale levels on the separation for each PANTONE^® colour correspond to the level of tint to apply.
