“[…] Viva Magenta descends from the red family, and is inspired by the red of cochineal, one of the most precious dyes belonging to the natural dye family as well as one of the strongest and brightest the world has known.”

PANTONE CONNECT

As a result of licensing issues between Adobe and Pantone, Pantone color libraries have been phased out of Adobe Creative Cloud software and creatives find their discontent when opening a work file and finding Pantone colors appearing in black (after November 2022).

Adobe users who are dependable on Pantone color definitions might be forced to subscribe to the Pantone Connect plugin, which comes in pricy 15€/monthly & 90€/yearly* options.
