Umm, red? Oh yeah, the stripe is white.
True, but he didn't ask about the white, just the red.

One might be surprised how persnickity some companies will get about the colors of their corporate logos and images.
That's where the "pantone" thing comes into play. All colors generate a certain frequency of light wave. When corporate images and things of that nature are being printed, the color of the ink will be specified at "X" with a certain +/- range in absolute color variation.

And I thought we were talking about Italian sweet bread.
Of course different printers and papers and runs will change the color. :blinking:
Yes, printers can match, but don't expect to see #185C look the same from different printers much less different papers. And if you do a reprint, the color may not match.
