Does anyone understand this...

[Phil_rose]

Hi, I have a client and I need to reproduce a blue color. This is what she has sent me. Does this make ANY sense to anyone and can anyone help me reproduce the color?

Thanks for any help you can offer!

Ask her to send you the actual document, not a broken screenshot.
You do not want to guess about this.

Pantone 368 is a green color, Pantone 287 is a blue color. They check out.

RBK? Could be a typo. See "Miscrosoft".

Looks like tab troubles when copy/pasting.
RGB(91,191,33) is a green color
RGB(0,48,135) is a blue color
RGB(91,155,213) is a light blue color

This is the bg image along with a sample card she sent me as an image. I wonder is RGB(0,48,135) is it.

Thanks!

Oh, how do I find Pantone 287? I have never understood Pantone stuff. Is it one of this list of Pantone books? I couldn't find it.

AHA! Pantone 287 IS 0.48,135. That MUST be it!

Thanks but how did you know it would be in Pantone Color Bridge? I don't even know how to get that far!

It's in all the four Formula Guide Solid and Color Bridge groups of Pantone swatches in the panel. 287 U is solid (or spot) uncoated, 287 C is is solid (or spot) coated. As I understand it, the PU and PC  versions are approximations of how the solids would look if printed with a CMYK mix - Process Uncoated and Process Coated.
