JPMA Color Code

Present Color Code (1995 and onward)

Since T edition (1995), the color code is fixed except for the first alphabet.

T15-90B in T edition (1995) is the same color as
E15-90B in E edition (2009).

Former Color Code (Before 1993)

Until 1993 (S series), the color code came in "X00 - 000(0)" (X stands for an alphabet, 0 for a number) style.
First half of the code defined the edition code and the page number, and the actual color was defined by the 3 (or 4) digit number following "-".

FS25-262 in S edition (1993) is exactly the same color as
R29-262 in R edition (1991)
