How about updating the Pantone+ library so it actually includes all the colors available.
How about updating the Pantone+ library so it actually includes all the colors available. There are 112 new colors that we cant use.

Yes please ! So many Pantone colors are missing into the AI library. This is an absolute waste of time. Many thanks to update it

Yes Please!! I heard from Pantone that they are not supporting the Pantone Color Manager after 2021. Also, it is replaced by the mobile app/ extension Pantone Connect, which does not allow you to download a library - you can only add one swatch at a time. We need a library panel option - all current Pantone color swatches in Illustrator are years out of date and don't match current books. In the meantime the Color Manager is included with the purchase of a book - use it to download the .ACB file now before it's gone.

Thank you for the advice JG. I pay Adobe nearly $3,000 per year for a 3-user license. I think it is reasonable to ask Adobe to update the Pantone color books on a regular basis. -

It should be included & updated with the adobe software

Include the complete Pantone color library in color books instead of having to buy it separately from Pantone.

Thanks @thiago $99.00 might be a good investment of the Pantone Color Management

The software PANTONE COLOR MANAGMENT do it for you. It syncs in Illustrator, Photoshop and Indesign.
Adobe is always creating new color numbers. -

Agree! We pay Adobe too much; we shouldn't have to worry about this kind of thing.

Yes! Pantone+ needs to be added. I have clients with these colors and I have to use the CMYK breakdown to achieve these colors. The color bridge for these colors also needs to be added please and thank you.

I did purchase the Pantone Color Manager at one point, and it a) was not updated, and b) never worked correctly. I have a year's worth of emails with their "customer service" and was told they didn't know why I was having issues. They would reset my password and it would work twice, then not at all. It went on for one entire year like that. Hasn't anyone else noticed that all the colors in the newer books are not present in their software?

I'm not 100% positive, but i think you can get the full new library if either you buy the software from pantone as "pantone color manager". Or you buy a physical pantone book and get the software for free with it when you register the book.

Adobe Pantone libraries are not being updated as new colors are added to books. I understand this may be an issue on Pantone's behalf, but it's very disappointing that Adobe software hasn't kept those libraries up to date.
Currently, to find the RGB or CMYK values, one needs to visit the Pantone website/Find a Pantone Color page, then create a color swatch from scratch. Will this get updated sometime soon? Or have the days of full Pantone libraries gone the route of the dinosaur?
