The Pantone CMYK swatches are a set of Process swatches developed by Pantone. The Pantone Solids (Coated or Uncoated) are the Spot colours you are most likely looking for to design your brand book.
What is the difference between Pantone CMYK coated and uncoated?
Coated paper has a shiny gloss coating, and the ink sits atop the coating allowing for minimal ink absorption. Uncoated paper has no surface coating permitting maximum ink absorption into the paper. The same PANTONE color printed on coated and uncoated paper will have quite a different visual appearance.
What is Pantone solid coated used for?
Pantone colors are mainly used in offset printing, which uses ink instead of toner. You can print on both a coated and uncoated sheet in digital printing as well, but not all digital printers can handle pantone colors. Typically, coated paper is used to convey more vibrant color production.
