Your answer is "Yes, that will be fine."


FOGRA39 Coated
FOGRA27 Coated (lightweight)
FOGRA29 Uncoated


You'll see that the CMYK working space for the document on uncoated stock is FOGRA29.

EDIT > Color Settings > Working Spaces CMYK: Uncoated FOGRA29.

Don't alter the correct setting. Good Luck.

Note: The RIP will take care of any necessary conversions.

FOGRA29 is a special color scheme. You need to prepare Adobe InDesign or ... to use this color scheme.

In English: Go to Edit > Color Settings... then under Working Spaces there's a CMYK menu for Uncoated FOGRA29.

In German:
Change in menu Bearbeiten –- Farbeinstellungen... the Arbeitsfarbräume for CMYK to FOGRA29 ... uncoated and click on Ok.

You can also use Adobe Preflight to change the color management to FOGRA29.
