Graeme Gill had written:
As I understand it, "Pantone Certified" means that the
manufacturer has paid Pantone to create custom, device specific
spot color tables for their device, and that the device
meets various other Pantone requirements. In return,
the manufacturer can advertise the product as being
"Pantone Certified".
A product that merely makes use of Pantone licensed
spot color libraries is (I am pretty sure), not
Pantone Certified.

As stated in a previous posting, Pantone does not certify, we license
applications and color output devices. The license process, for color
output devices, means that special PANTONE color tables have been created by
Pantone for the manufacturer. In order for any product to use Pantone color
data and trademarks, whether it be software or color output devices, must
have a license from Pantone. I hope that this helps clarify the issue.
