How do I get an exact color match for labels?
This can be done two ways, With a press match, or by using Pantone colors.
A press proof match is when a label company prints your labels to match the sample you provided.
Do you need your custom labels to be an exact color? Tell your label printer you want a press match to your current label colors. Another option is to use pantone colors. Pantone colors ensure that your color is the same on labels, packaging, boxes and any other printed packaging materials.
