Keep in mind that identical similarity between PANTONE and CMYK colors is not to be expected. The reason why these two standards are different is because CMYK is the color space model used in printing and digital imaging. It is designed to represent any imaginable color as close as possible. While Pantone is a color standard, which is actually a collection of predefined colours, mostly used in design and other decorative arts.
