Spot-On
When you expand a library (double click on the name) you will see the
associated colors and their CMYK values (based on the output profile).
The CMYK values are for the 100% tint of that Pantone color. If your data
includes other tints, Spot-On will compute their new CMYK recipes based
on L*a*b*.
Example for 50% of Pantone 288
Spot-On looks up the L*a*b* value for 100% Pantone 288 and it
computes 50% of that value.
It then looks up the new L*a*b* value in the chosen ICC profile and
finds the right CMYK combination. The result is:
100% Pantone 288 = 53%C, 35%M, 4%Y, 33%K
50% Pantone 288 = 22%C, 17%M, 15%Y, 0%K
The tint values are not exactly 50% of the CMYK value for the 100%
Pantone, but rather are the colorimetric 50% point.
FIND
To find a color, choose Find from the Edit menu.
The find dialog box appears, enter the color name and click OK.
ADD COLOR
To add a new color or color group, select the line in the group or color list
where your addition is intended. Choose New Group or New Color from

Profile, it is available for all Output Profiles.
