Can someone on the site make a printable template of chips that are each a Paulson color?

I'm imagining something like a downloadable PDF of the Chip Designer Tool where each chip is listed in each color. Printing a single page of each chip using the chip designer tool would be a nightmare.

MatthewB created this thread that mentions conversions to RGB and CMYK formats:

Is this template doable/possible? Say 20 chip-colors a sheet or so?

Hmmm, I didn't consider that, but maybe doable!

Was thinking of an improved version of this:

I think a template of this sort would help folks a ton who list chips for sale that are all like, "I don't have Paulson Colors, so I do not know which yellow this is..."
(which is mostly my gripe I guess since I don't have Paulson color set and have zero plans to acquire one)
 
The problem is that you’re looking for color accuracy across multiple different color formats and processes.
The issue is that RGB for a computer screen and CMYK for a printing press will never be able to accurately duplicate the colors of chips that were made by mixing colored dyes. Some colors may be represented well, but others not.
As an example, there are some bright blues that look great on a chip and are fairly comparable on an RGB screen, but don’t print nearly as bright in CMYK. Then there’s the bright neon Paulson colors that won’t match on either.

Having some approximation of Paulson colors is fine, but if the goal is true accuracy, I’m afraid it will disappoint.
