Additional Information
To save you having to manually add colors from a color book into your document, you can just refer to the color (in the correct namespace) and PTC ALD will automatically add it for you. So, for example, if you wanted to set your text color to PANTONE_Bright_Red_C from the PANTONE+ Solid Coated color book, enter <?tic 'pantone_sc:PANTONE_Bright_Red_C'> in the relevant position in the stream. When the document gets formatted, if it doesn't have a physical tag called PANTONE_Bright_Red_C in a namespace pantone_sc, then PTC ALD will look through the known color books, find the one with bookname defined to be pantone_sc, and create the color for you.
