    Which color management profile is the BEST to use, working with this bridge book set or should I use no color management at all? (If color management is used, it needs to be set in Photoshop, Illustrator, and then InDesign as that is my final output before exporting to PDF). There are several online printers I'm evaluating to print with who use a variety of profiles: GRACo, SWOP, U.S. Sheetfed...

    Thank you!

    Swop is the safest for pantone.

    You need to remember in a workflow you are considered the source profile the rip at your printer is the destination profile. This will have the major control of colour. I suggest you request your printer to match the colour you require.
    There workflow should be setup to deal with your requirement if not use a different printer.
