Pantone color

[TammieH]

We have a customer that gave a file with a Pantone color in the name
Pantone_U [HASHTAG]#20737[/HASHTAG]

There is nothing when I click on the color in Illustrator in the color picker.

Does that make sense to anyone? I checked the internet and Pantone's website and nothing there

I think that is an error, I don't find anything either

Thank you, that's what I was thinking

Not a Pantone reference.

Perhaps a hexadecimal RGB reference?

I was thinking that too or a web color reference, the .ai file they gave us is a light warm gray

Which should me a mute point, but the customer is looking at our proof,
and of course the background color is a standard cream color suite sign, so their color does not show up well.
I explained in a not too them, but...

So we must have done something wrong (according to them)

Pantone colors are only 3 or 4 digit numbers.

There is a Pantone 12-0737 in their color system for fabrics. It's a pastel yellow.
Or maybe you've already figured out the answer.

Thank you for the information ...I am assuming whoever designed the logo used some sort of file naming system that they use

Pantone added over 100 colors this year, but I didn't find any info for the number you listed, Tammy. They were doing web conferences earlier this year talking about the changes they have made to their system; Now the are basing the color appearances based on the perception of grey (I think this is to get along with GRACol better, and falls in line with the profiling I have been apart of when using 6 color inkjets).
