I’m a web designer, and I’ve never done anything for print before. However, I’m working on a business card for somebody currently in Illustrator CS2. I am curious how I could convert the CMYK values to PMS, or just get the corresponding PMS values, for production of the business cards. If anybody could help, it would be greatly appreciated.
