Thanks for the reply, John. So, maybe I can summarize what I might do, then and see if it makes sense? (I'm adding in a step I just learned about for pantone books as well):

1. Install, load in the Color Pantone Bridge pallets into my Illustrator, Photoshop and InDesign programs. Use these swatches when filling my text or graphical objects. -

The swatche(s) that I chose from my Pantone Bridge printed swatch book.

2. When done designing and saving the tif, eps and InDesign docs, go to each of the programs' / files' Color settings dialogs and enter the same profile for each of them. Then I open up InDesign with the latest updated links, save the file, and then export a PDF also entering the same exact color profile settings.

      > Is this correct?




Then it's WHICH color settings: If the online printer I'm going to prints with GRACoL then I want to make sure I have this profile set. IF they use U.S. Sheetfed, then I want

to make sure I have this profile set. And same with if they use web SWOP or FOGRA27, 28, or 29 (ISO 12647).

      > Is this correct?





      > And would you konw, is the Pantone book an accurate enough reference
      for all those profiles: GRACoL, U.S. Sheetfed, FOGRA, SWOP?




Thanks so much for your valuable feedback!!!
