## Description

The PANTONE formula guide solid coated & solid uncoated set is the must-have tool for designers, printers and color decision makers for specifying and approving spot colors in graphic projects, especially logos, branded designs and packaging. Set features 1, 867 solid colors printed on both coated and uncoated paper, for the most options possible to communicate and specify color intent accurately and confidently. New colors have been added to the front of the guides, allowing designers to easily find 112 new means of inspiration, expression and opportunities for creativity. Colors are each displayed with coordinating numbers and ink formulations so that printers anywhere in the world will understand clearly how to best Mix colors when matching on press. Colors are predominantly arranged chromatically to allow for ease in visually locating color families and ranges. Printed colors bleed off both page sides so colors can be best analyzed for matching when guide pages are laid on top of printed Works during evaluation. An Index can be found in the back of each guide for easy location of colors by number. The convenient fan guide format allows for optimal color scanning and portability. Guides are produced on text-weight paper in order to best simulate the most commonly used industry printing substrate. A lighting indicator tool can be found at the back of each guide, allowing the user to instantly understand if current lighting conditions are suitable for accurate color evaluation and matching. Purchase of this guide set includes a free download of PANTONE color Manager software, which allows upload of all the latest PANTONE color libraries into your favorite design applications. All colors are printed using a uniform ink film thickness making them easy to match on press. PANTONE colors are internationally recognized for color communication and are globally available.

Review: Yes it's legit - All these negative reviews were so off-putting I was hesitant to even buy this guide for fear of it being counterfeit. I actually emailed Pantone customer service direct from their website and was told yes, these products are from Pantone - desertcart buys from them directly. With that out of the way, I'll address the quality issues brought up by other reviews. First of all, yes the pages are quite thin - thin enough to not be entirely opaque. I could see a noticeable difference when viewing pages on my black desk versus on a white sheet of paper. It is not a HUGE difference, but the human eye can definitely discern it. Other reviews are quite concerned with the thinness of this paper, but being practical here, this booklet is already a good 2 inches thick. I can only imagine how immense and unwieldy it would become if printed on thicker paper! It is a little time intensive to flip through, but this is mostly due to the sheer amount of pages it has, and the need to handle it carefully so as not to damage the thin paper, not because the pages are actually sticking together or anything. Other reviews also mentioned gradients, bubbles, and inconsistency in the ink. I looked very hard for gradients, and only one page of peachy colors had a bit of a darker rim, but it was so subtle I couldn't even photograph it. As for bubbles, I've included a photo showing a few pages with dots and smudges. These marks are so very small they do not detract from being able to use the color swatch. It seems to be pretty uncommon, as these were the only pages out of the whole 270 page booklet with noticeable blemishes. As for consistency, this is the first and only Pantone product I've yet purchased, so I have no others to compare it to. It seems a lot of reviewers are upset with the downgrade in quality from previous Pantone booklets, which I have no firsthand experience with. All I can say is that I bought this booklet to translate some of my digital designs into physical products, and it made working with the manufacturer a breeze. Even on an IPS (true color) monitor using the Pantone Photoshop CC app, you can still end up with huge color inaccuracies when compared to the physical Pantone booklet. Definitely an invaluable tool I'm super happy to finally own.
Review: Great Product + Great Quality - Very happy with both Coated and Uncoated books that were received. Had concerns based upon previous reviews but quality and consistency of color is top notch and any mottling that was talked to in other reviews could be a by-product of ink settling into the uncoated surface of the U color spectrum - expected to be seen at the production level also. Great quality and very usable books for sure.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Thin pages, great value!
*by C***A on October 4, 2020*

This is the best deal for Pantone books. I design enamel pins so I only use the Solid Coated book but it gets the job done. The pages are a bit on the thin side but it works in my favor as it's easy to bend pages down to match and compare colors.
