Pantone Color Bridge Coated GG6103C – PMS to CMYK Color Guide
The Pantone Color Bridge Coated GG6103C is a professional color reference tool for graphic designers, commercial printers, packaging professionals, brand managers and creative teams who need to accurately compare Pantone Spot Colors with their closest CMYK process-color equivalents.
The Pantone Color Bridge Coated guide displays Pantone Spot Colors side-by-side with their closest industry-standard CMYK matches, making it easier to understand how a selected Pantone color will translate when reproduced using four-color process printing. The guide also provides RGB and HTML values to support digital design and cross-platform color communication.
Pantone Spot Color to CMYK Conversion
Color Bridge is designed to help bridge the gap between Pantone Spot Color printing, CMYK process printing and digital design. Each color comparison helps designers and printers evaluate color expectations before moving from design to production.
This makes the Color Bridge Coated guide particularly useful for branding, packaging, advertising, brochures, publications, commercial printing and other projects where colors may need to be reproduced in both spot and process printing.
Coated Paper Reference
The GG6103C is a coated-paper color reference, allowing designers and print professionals to evaluate Pantone colors as they appear on coated stock.
Pantone explains that its coated guides use commonly used coated paper stock and that the physical guide is intended for evaluating actual printed color rather than relying solely on a computer-screen simulation.

Why Use Pantone Color Bridge?
The Pantone Color Bridge is different from the Pantone Formula Guide. Color Bridge shows the Pantone Spot Color alongside its closest CMYK simulation and provides digital RGB and HTML information. The Formula Guide focuses on solid Pantone colors and their ink-mixing formulas.
A physical Color Bridge guide is especially useful when a design needs to transition between spot-color printing, CMYK production and digital applications.
