Spot colors and vendors colors

[graywoulf]

Does anyone know of a way to convert or match normal vendor's RGB and CMYK colors to Roland spot colors? I have been working for so long with vendor's colors but now I would like to know which of the Roland spot colors to match them up to. Some of the colors that I use were tweaked as RGB or CMYK colors to match a specific customer's needs and I need to know which spot colors to use now.Thanks!

The Roland spot colors will print a shade or two different depending on the media you are printing on and the profile your using. You would need the color samples from the vendor to compare them to a printed Roland swatch on the material you are using to get it right.
