Pantone Color Bridge Uncoated 2026 — professional application
The side-by-side comparison helps you decide whether a process simulation is acceptable for a particular project.
Define your task and paper type first. Compare tools by function, rather than colour count alone.
What do you get, and what can this version not replace?
The Uncoated version does not replace the Coated swatches. For production involving both paper types, choose the Color Bridge Set.

How should you evaluate color and select the right set?
Assess samples under suitable lighting and on the correct paper version. Paper, ink and production conditions affect the print result. Evaluate them together.
The nearest CMYK simulation is not an identical colour. Agree the acceptable difference with your client before conversion.
Questions to consider before purchasing
Is the color number alone sufficient?
No. You must also check the library and the paper designation—either ‘C’ (coated) or ‘U’ (uncoated)—before comparing the sample against your design or production output.
When should you purchase a supplement instead of a full guide?
Buy a supplement if your complete earlier library remains in good condition and you need new references. It cannot restore faded samples.
