Pantone TPM Colour Book Digital Access

[reneew47644580]

Hi,

Can anyone please explain how to import Pantone TPM (metallic shimmers) colour book to illustrator CC? 

Do I need to pay for this service?

I am using Apple Mac with Adobe CC. 

Cheers Renee

You could try checking with Pantone (https://www.pantone.com/articles/product-spotlight/introducing-metallic-shimmers) if they offer a set of swatches that can be imported into Illustrator, but I don't that that Metallic shimmers can be replicated in Illustrator. You may need to pick a placeholder ink color and communicate closely with the print vendor.

Have a look at the Pantone Connect extension:
