Check, Check, Check!

Vicki Stone, director of technical services for 100-year old Green Printing & Packaging, says using preflighting software has helped her company justify the costs associated with repairing design files. "Some customers are very invested in getting the files right," she says. "Others aren't sure they want to own the responsibility. In that case, our preflighting software is a major help, because we can offer a third-party report on the condition of the job when it entered the shop. The report indicates exactly what work needs to be done to the job before it can proceed through prepress, and it validates any additional cost applied."
