Pantone was a commercial language, a proprietary library of physical ink formulations, designed for consistency on a printing press. Converting one to the other wasn't translation; it was alchemy. Sometimes it worked. Often, it ended in tears and rush shipping fees. He typed: He tried 7466 C—too blue, a

The optical blend —the color his brain averaged between the two—was exactly the hushed, complex teal of the Munsell tile.
