As colour on coated and uncoated paper appears different, so should be the RGB value to reflect this.


Could someone in North America please do me a favour? I need the recommended RGB colour value for Pant 369 U and Pant 485 U. Could someone please look this up in the ColourBridge Uncoated?


We would have bought the Colour bridge uncoated, but there is NO EUROPEAN VERSION. For some reason only a coated version of ColorBridge exists in Europe. Who knows why, but there is really little point for is buying the North American version.


Many thanks.

Out of curiosity, why RGB? Bridge is CMYK.

What program? Did you check to see if you could download the Euro palettes at Pantone.com? I know they have them up there. Or they did anyway.. Just be DARN SURE you tell your printer you are using Bridge colors... They are numbered the same as regular PMS colors.

Pantone is a PITA now that they make you log-in and they aren't nearly as helpful as they should be when it comes to what you can download anymore. They used to have all kinds of charts and wonderful cross-reference materials... Oh well...

The program dosn't matter. It's supposed to be used for all screen representations.
more recent editions of ColourBridge give CMYK, RGB and Hex values: http://pantone.com/pages/products/product.aspx?pid=286&ca=1

Someone with the actual book will be along to help.
I edited my post re why I asked program.

I don't use Bridge in my job. :D
