Allow Pandora to shorten Pantone and Spot Color names when used in SmartMarks and Pandora autocolor naming

  1. Close Pandora software.
  2. In the Pandora application folder, use a text editor program to open the DefaultUser.properties file.
  3. Add the following lines: “Mark.EnableShortenColorName=true” and “Mark.ShortenColorNameRule”
  4. Save the DefaultUser.properties file.
  5. Restart the Pandora application for the changes to take effect.

Notes:

Only prefix or suffix of color name can be replaced.

For example,

  1. setting “Mark.ShortenColorNameRule=PANTONE:PMS”, "PANTONE 200 C" will be shortened to "PMS200C"

  2. setting “Mark.ShortenColorNameRule=PANTONE:PMS, C:”, "PANTONE 200 C" will be shortened to "PMS200"
