Colors books do not have colors in numerical oder and typing 133 gets me 330:  is that right?

I was using the Pantone Color Books as I would in CS5.  I expected to see the colors in numnerical order but the numbers jump around plugging in the 7500s randomly.  If I type 133 to get that color in the Uncoated, I get it.  If I type 133 in the Coated, I get 330.  Unless there is a preference for setting this behavior, I think it is a bug.

    The Pantone color books have the colors in the order provided by Pantone, matching the order in the printed books.

    I was not aware until today that Pantone had put out two sets of color books:  e.g., those marked as PANTONE solid uncoated with another set named Pantone+ Solid Uncoated.  The latter is not in CS5 applications.  It is that set, the Pantone+ set that has the higher number co-mingled with the lower numbers.  Both sets are resident in the Photoshop CS6 color books list.  I am glad about that.

     

    As for the typing in 133 to get 133C and ending up on 330C--I did it at least six times with no luck and quit the application to have dinner.  I have not been able to produce that again.
