Took me 5 years to realize I was using Pantone swatches wrong
I work at a small print shop in Cleveland and back in March a client brought in a business card job with this specific teal color. I pulled what I thought was the right Pantone swatch and told them it would match. When the cards came out it was this horrible greenish-blue mess, not even close. The client was super nice about it but I felt awful. Then my boss walked over and showed me I was looking at the uncoated swatch for a coated paper job. Five years I had been doing that and nobody ever corrected me. Has anyone else made that same dumb mistake or am I the only one?
