I am using a Pantone Solic Coated color of 3292C.

I want to get the RGB and CMYK equivalents to match as close as possible while being without any warnings in the program.

I have come up with a CMYK of 100%,0%,49%,46% and an RGB of 51.102.102

The problem is, my RGB panton guide says the equivalent should be 0.92.84 but I get web and gamut warnings about the color in Illustrator and PS.

Can someone confirm the colors I should be using for that Pantone.

Why are you worried about gamut warnings? Many Pantone colors will produce gamut warnings … that is the whole idea of Pantone colors (or a big part of it) to be able to produce colors that are not in the CMYK gamut.

If you click on the gamut box, it will give you the closest CMYK gamut color. It just won’t be the Pantone color any more.
