    Pantone Process Black revestido vs não revestido

    A mesma tinta, duas superfícies. Este resulta bem nos dois: os papéis ficam próximos, com o não revestido ligeiramente mais discreto. Translúcido: não cobre papel escuro.

    The same ink is not the same colour on the two stocks. On coated sheets the ink sits on a sealed surface: denser, brighter, sharper edges. On uncoated the fibres absorb it: softer, duller, slightly lighter, and warm colours lose the most punch. Some colours change character outright: brights go chalky, deep navies go grey-blue.

    Perguntas frequentes

    Is Process Black C the same colour as Process Black U?
    No. They are the same ink formulation printed on two different surfaces, and PANTONE® publishes them as two separate chips for that reason. This one travels well: the two stocks land close, with uncoated only slightly quieter. If your brand guideline names only one of them, name the stock too: otherwise the press has to guess.
    Qual devo escolher?
    Specify the one that matches the paper you are actually printing on. If the job runs on uncoated stock, sign off against Process Black U: approving the C chip and then printing uncoated is the single most common colour complaint we see.
    Consegue que a versão não revestida corresponda à amostra revestida?
    Not exactly, no. We can push density a little, and on some colours a double hit closes part of the gap, but the coating is doing the work: no amount of ink turns an uncoated sheet into a coated one. Where the brand colour is non-negotiable, we would look at a coated stock, a spot varnish under the solid, or foil.
    Does Pantone Process Black cover dark paper on either stock?
    Offset and letterpress inks are translucent. On a dark or coloured stock a light ink will not cover: it sinks into the sheet and reads tone-on-tone. For light colour on dark paper the answer is foil stamping or an opaque screen pass, never a straight PMS hit.
