    Default Finding PMS color using Photoshop 7 and Illustrator 10

    I'm starting off in art graphics, and I'm using photoshop 7 and Illustrator 10 to do all my work. Now my question is...when I receive a 4 color artwork, i need to find the PMS for each color. How do I do so? Can someone give me a step by step on finding the PMS for each color? Thanks in advance!!

    Your question confuses me. Four-color art is normally full color, created with the CMYK system. It does not relate to the PMS system at all.

    On the other hand, if you mean the unusual system where a job has been created with four PMS colors, you can use the PMS by clicking on the custom button of the color picker.
