Pantone Web Color Resource Kit [With Contains Tools, Colors, Samples and More... and Pantone Internet Color System Guide]

This package includes an excellent book, but more importantly, a color swatch book. Using the Pantone (R) colorweb swatch, you can quickly locate and apply Internet-safe colors to your Web site. Each color displays a Pantone reference number, RGB values, CMYK values and HTML code to give you the color you need in a variety of entry formats. You'll quickly find various tones of each color and good colors to go with them. The only drawback to this package was the CD-ROM, which is only useful on the Mac. I'd like to see an updated release which also includes at least evaluation versions of Adobe PageMill and Pantone Color Web for the PC.

From: Steve Urmano, Pantone, Director of Sales There is a bug in System 8's color picker extension which causes the PICS picker to crash the system. We have reported this problem to the Apple OS development team and are awaiting their response. In the meantime, there is a work around to this problem - have the user install the System 7.x color picker extension that ships with ColorWeb. € Before the user installs the System 7.x picker extension, they should place the System 8 color picker extension in the "Disabled Extensions" folder. € Then the user would simply drag-copy the System 7.x Apple Color picker extension from the ColorWeb disk to the System folder for where it will then be placed into the Extensions folder. € Restart the computer PLEASE NOTE: The new System 8 color pickers will work with the System 7.x extension so the user does not lose those features such as the Crayon picker. We feel that the review of this product has been tainted by the bug which at this time Apple has agreed to fix with the next maintenance release of OS 8. Please edit your book list to refer to this fix. We plan to make this fix available on our Web Site (Pantone.com) ASAP.
