Pantone Color Bridge Guide Set (Coated & Uncoated)

Details

Perfect for designers working across various platforms, theColor Bridge Guide Set(coated & uncoated) fromPantonehelps you find suitable replacement values for Pantone spot colors in CMKY, RGB, and HTML formats. Featuring 2139 PMS (Pantone Matching System) spot colors, including 294 new trend colors, this guide set helps you visualize colors in various applications, as with other Pantone decks, and then find the suitable replacement value for CMYK when process printing is the final medium, or RGB and HTML for digital applications. For added consistency and quality, CMYK values are produced using G7 calibrated CRPC6 and CRPC3 press references to better represent industry standard color management and printing conditions, as well as direct results of moving from a PMS spot color to its process color equivalent.

The wide array of colors is featured in two handheld fan decks with 100 pound coated and 80 pound uncoated stocks, plus an integrated lighting indicator page so you can assess correct lighting conditions for accurate readings. The colors are arranged in chromatic format, and each color is displayed with its corresponding number and ink formulation. A helpful index in the back provides the numeric location for each color.

Please note that Pantone books should be replaced 12-18 months after opening due to color shifts and fading that occurs over time.
