Hi. Does anyone know if there is a way to print out colors or color charts from PS 7.0? Instead of having to match colors from Pantone. Please help.

The point of Pantone is that the swatches are the actual ink. Anything from Photoshop would be an approximation. Consider that your printer may not render colors perfectly.

Wes,

if you want to know how all combinations of CMYK values look on YOUR printer, then you may print the first pages of this swatch book:

A typical application is the design of posters which are definitely intended for printing by a specified inkjet. Essential are the CMYK numbers. A preview on the monitor is possible if the printer has an ICC profile.
