EPS, TIFF and Acrobat Charts
Some presentation or drawing programs may not be listed here as supported
applications. If this is the case, you can bring your custom colors into these
applications by using any of the appropriate color chart formats. For this to work,
the application must have a tool (like an eyedropper) that you can use to pick up
colors from an imported graphic. EPS and TIFF charts are also very useful in
many applications because they are easy to import and apply. Additionally, the
PANTONE Color Names are provided in the EPS and TIFF palettes, whereas
some applications do not support naming colors in their native file or palette
format.
