Bringing a PMS color logo from Illustrator 10 into Photoshop 7 changes the the color.
I tried to match up the color management (they're both RGB 1998) but didn't help.
Thanks in advance.

You can't bring a Pantone color into Photoshop since it will be
converted to either RGB or CMYK. Convert it in Illustrator first.

From Photoshop's Edit > Colour Settings, SAVE your current settings to a
colour settings file (.CSF) to the default location. From Illustrator's
Edit>Colour Settings d/box LOAD the .CSF file you just saved. Now you can be
sure both applications are using identical settings.
However Pantone colours and RGB really don't go together - Pantone colours
are representations of inks which is very different to the RGB colour space.
Photoshop's conversions will be more accurate than Illustrator's since
Photoshop's Pantone libraries are reference the L*a*b colour space whereas
Illustrator's reference an unknown CMYK colour space.
Richard, you may want to download Pantone's Color Bridge program... although I don't know if it'll do what you want.
And CS2 is supposed to transparently enforce the same color management policies between all members of the Suite2, which may be what you're really looking for.
