Customer ReviewsReviewed on 2007-09-13      Essential product for graphics professionals As a graphic designer that meets in person with most of my clients, I have found it very beneficial to show up with the tools of the trade. Pantone has gained recognition as the standard for displaying color and insuring that it is accurately reproduced in print. This product gives you six books, an Inspiration Guide, and a carrying case. The carrying case is soft, fits inside my laptop bag, and protects the individual books well with each resting in their own compartment.
One big thing that I missed in the products online description is what each book actually contains. I work entirely with the Solid Formulas (PMS 186 for example) and was under the impression that two of the books, for coated and uncoated, would feature the 4-color process builds of the Solid colors displayed on the respective stock. They are instead the Process Guides (the colors with a name like: DS 223-4 C), while still useful, but not what I thought I would be getting. The Color Bridge book does serve the purpose of side-by-side comparison of Solid colors and how closely they can be reproduced using process builds, but only for coated stock. |  | Reviewed on 2007-05-12      If you are a grapfhic designer you must have this This case is excellent to keep all the catalogues and the price is very attractive as you take 5 catalogues.
I am a graphic designer and I think that this is one of the very first investment of any professional.
There is just one thing I don't like on 2 of them: 4-Color Process Guide.
The guide is very helpfull but would help more if that would have the closest Pantone reference number related with the percentage in CMKY.
I miss 2 catalogues: methalic colors and Color Bride uncoated, that I bought separately.
Anyway no one of my comments would be anything significant to avoid getting it. I bought and I am very satisfied! |  | Reviewed on 2007-01-10      A Designer's Delight!
