When you use that ink on a press how the ink appears will depend on if the stock is uncoated or coated. A coated stock does not absorb as much ink and has different reflective properties that the color appears more vibrant. An uncoated stock absorbs the ink and does not reflect as much light that the same ink will look duller and sometimes darker on that stock. Pantone makes coated, matt coated and uncoated reference books. When selecting PMS colors you want to make sure you are looking at the swatch that is most similar to your paper stock.
