Matching customer logo colors to vinyl colors???

[veddderman123 0]

I have my first customer who has a specific CMKY color code for their logo.  Looking at the Oracle swatches in Illustrator there isn't an exact match.  What do you do in this situation???  Please help!

2 things come to mind - never trust the color of a monitor for matching and the second I would contact Oracal directly thru their website with the info

either you can have someone print enough vinyl in that color for you to use or have oracal make you a custom color(requires a certain amount for them to make it, not sure how much though)

Yep, and I think the minimum order for a custom run from Oracal, etc. is at least 200 yds.  Getting it digitally printed is probably your best bet.

I have heard of PMS colors being required but not CYMK.

Normally color proofs are required for this type of work prior to going to production.

If your customer wishes to pay for this then you could do it.
