@khaosgrille@fedi.absturztau.be I think you misunderstood the situation. Here's a nice blog post about it: https://pluralistic.net/2022/10/28/fade-to-black/#trust-the-process

Key sections:Pantone is a system for specifying color-matching. A Pantone number corresponds to a specific tint that's either made by mixing the four standard print colors (cyan, magenta, yellow and black, AKA "CMYK"), or by applying a "spot" color.There's a "thin" database copyright on the Pantone values and their ink equivalents. Anyone selling a RIP or printer that translates Pantone numbers to inks almost certainly has to license Pantone's copyright there.The name -> color mapping is what's getting copyrighted here.
