Excellent ! The matching width and strength of the Balmer lines in your HD187362 spectrum with the Pickles reference confirms the spectral classification (I used A2v but the difference between A2v and A3v is <5%, perhaps A2.5V would be the closest match) and the matching continuum shape tells us that there is little or no interstellar extinction. We can now also confidently use HD187362 as a reference star
