Pantone Connect plugin doesn't work on InDesign (20.3.1), doesn't show up at all in swatches panel, as it used to. I've already uninstalled and reinstalled the plugin, but the problem persists.

 

Any help, please?

Thanks everyone!

Adobe helpdesk helped me through. Pantone plugin can be found at Window > Extensions.

Thanks again!

Hi @Diplographia Publishing ,

contact Pantone with your issue.

My guess is that something changed with InDesign 2025 v20.3.1 regarding plug-in compatibility.

So an update with a new compiled version is needed.

Hi Diplographia, this might help:

The point of this article is how to restore the Pantone color books easily and work-around (uninstall and abandon) the badly-designed Pantone plugin.
