Full Pantone palette and guide

As we talked about before, I wanted to provide the correct Pantone values in case we or anyone else decides to make ReVanced merch. Below are the appropriate values I extracted using the Pantone official tools. As we didn't pick the other two colors to close a full palette, I used the triadic pairs for the three existing colors to create a full palette.

So that you know, all our branding guidelines still apply, and we advise against using metallic shimmers except as accents.

Pantone Matching System (PMS)

Our primary Pantone reference. If you can access the Pantone libraries, please use their match functionality to find the best match between our PMS colors and those that should be used in your manufacturing case instead of the tables below. Still, we will also include other standard tables, just in case.

If the target library generates repeated colors because the material you want to use generates difficulties replicating our colors, pick the alternative closest to our PMS colors in brightness to preserve the overall balance in our branding.

Created using the Formula Guide Coated library, this should be used primarily for the following purposes and materials:

  • Print
  • Packaging
  • Digital products
  • Screen Printing

If you are using paper but for textile and home interior purposes, you should also refer to this color table. In the rare cases where the manufacturer can't match the colors themselves, please use the best match in the FHI Paper TPG library.

Pantone Connect Palette

Fashion, home + interiors (FHI) system

Created using the FHI library, this should be used for the following purposes and materials:

  • Apparel
  • Fabrics
  • Soft Goods
  • Cosmetics
  • Paints
  • Leather
  • Accessories

If you are using cotton as the primary material

Pantone Connect Palette

If you are using Polyester or Nylon as the primary material

So that you know, we use the FHI Polyester TSX library because we favor its pastel colors instead of the bright ones in the FHI Nylon Brights TN. In the edge cases where it might be ideal to use the Nylon Brights, please use the best match between our PMS colors and the FHI Nylon Brights TN library.

I do not quite understand this issue.
What should be changed?
Do you want to include sources with these colours, just the documentation or assets?
What is your motivation for either?

Considering the following

I extracted using the Pantone official tools

No assets nor sources have to be provided as any asset or source can be generated off such tools (or would've been generated in application).

The tools are paid for, and they are not cheap. This should've been a PR, but I wanted input on wording before doing so. Sorry if that wasn't promptly clear.

I recommend discussing any PR in an issue, otherwise it could be closed and effort would be wasted.
