This is described in the Manual and in my e-book listed below. The same Colors window can be used to create your own colors. Pantone colors are copyrighted and you would need to have the (expensive) Pantone CMYK cross reference guide from that vendor. In Scribus you would not get the exact Pantone colors but rather a CMYK or RGB approximation. This is covered in detail in The Scribus Manual on pages 252 and following. Illustrator has a more sophisticated method, and a built-in Pantone reference, but we are talking Scribus here. It is difficult to use Scribus without the Manual. -- John Culleton Wexford Press "Create Book Covers with Scribus" http://www.booklocker.com/books/4055.html
