Convert from PMS to CMYK colour

[cje]

I'm in need of converting a PMS colour to CMYK. Can't find how or any forum posts which solve this issue.

Double click the round fill area in the Colour panel or at the bottom of the Tools panel. That brings up the Colour Chooser. Then change one of the CMYK values, then back again. Easiest way is to use the mouse scrolling button to go up and then down. That changes the fill to CMYK rather than Pantone.

Not sure how much it matters to you but note that as explained here, only a subset of Pantone colors can be reproduced exactly using only the 4 CMYK ink colors.

Obsolete.

Thank you for your information.

What is said above applies to PANTONE special inks, which I assume you meant by referring to "PMS colors". Colors of other PANTONE color libraries, e.g. those meant to be produced by using standard inks, may be defined in fixed color values in both sRGB and CMYK (generic)

Thank you. Good to know.
