About Hex to Pantone Converter

The Hex to Pantone Converter helps designers and developers bridge the gap between digital and print color systems. HEX codes are used for screens, while Pantone (PMS) colors are the industry standard for print, packaging, and product manufacturing. This tool finds the closest Pantone match for any given HEX color using an RGB Euclidean distance algorithm against a database of over 150 popular Pantone TCX colors.

All processing happens entirely in your browser — no data is sent to any server. Simply enter a HEX color code or use the visual color picker, and the tool instantly shows the top 5 closest Pantone matches with similarity percentages, color swatches, and a side-by-side comparison so you can evaluate the match quality at a glance.

How accurate is this converter? expand_more

The converter uses Euclidean distance in RGB color space to find the closest match from a curated database of 150+ Pantone TCX colors.
