Method and computer generated swatch cards for matching colors

摘要

A blank is provided for producing color swatches on a color printer or photocopier. A sheet adapted to be fed through the printer or photocopier contains a first set of perforations defining the perimeter of a swatch card. A second set of perforations disposed within the perimeter of the swatch card defines a plurality of openings. The openings are punched out, preferably after color swatches have been printed on the swatch card, in order to enable the viewing of a sample color through the opening for comparison with the color swatches. A third set of perforations is provided in a corner of the swatch card to enable a plurality of swatch cards to be assembled into a reference deck by passing a fastener through holes formed via the third set of perforations. Each sheet can have a plurality of swatch cards laid out therein, with each swatch card containing a plurality of color swatches.
