Hi there... does anybody know if it is possible to select colours from a pantone color chart? if so how is it done??

The short answer is not really.

This long, somewhat convoluted, thread does however include a reasonable workaround.

Cheers everyone for that, the Ozcad plugin looks like exactly what I am after..... Do you know if it only works with 11.5?

The Link to the table with the RGB values is also extremely helpful.... It's a tad long winded but it does allow perfect colour control

The Australian Distributor has developed a color/Paint Selection PIO,Check out the movie at

It converts Pantone to colours and textures.

I checked out the ozcad site, but can't find the relevant link. Could someone give me a more specific pointer?

Go to the site front page. On the right is a news dialog. Click on the 11.5 announced link and read the pdf through.

It mentions their colour pallette feature there with a link to a movie. I

have watched it ages ago, but I can't seem to download it at present.

Maybe you'll have better luck now you know were it is.
