Color Chart Insanity!
Often times, a client gives me a specific color they would like on a sign. On my computer, I have Pantone color charts installed. Unfortunately, they keep requesting Avery colors! Where can I find a digital Avery color chart that can be used with my software? I've searched a number of websites with no luck.

My current solution is to find the color in my Avery book, take a photograph of it, and use the eyedropper tool in Photoshop to get a "best guess" of what the color should be on my screen. ((Have you ever gone so far around the block that going straight up the street would seem like...a miracle??))
