Preflight Pro allows for PDF preflight without printbuyers needing to download additional software. Whether a PDF is uploaded from an order form or via the "Send a File" utility on your website, your customers will enjoy instant preflighting along with an instant file health check report.

 

Adding a PDF file to an order form

  • If an order form has a 'File Transfer' type of question, PDF preflighting happens automatically after selecting the 'Attach a File' button.
  • Preflight Pro will automatically perform a PDF file health check on their behalf
  • A file health report is instantly available for your customer's review as well as this same PDF report will be available in the Control Center's Workflow tab for the job
  • Your printbuyers will then be able to let you know if their PDF file can be printed as-is or if they would like assistance with improving their file

After their order has been submitted, you'll find the PDF file, their signoff selection, and a link to the PDF health report in two locations within the "Order Summary":

  • The "Job Journal" tab
  • The "Work in Progress" > "Files" tab

 

     

    Adding a PDF via "Send a File"

  • PDF preflighting happens the same way when printbuyers use your website's "Send a File" utility
  • The "Send a File" pop-up will automatically perform the PDF file health check on their behalf
  • A file health report is instantly available for review
  • Your printbuyers will then be able to let you know if their PDF file can be printed as-is or if they would like assistance with improving their file

After their order has been submitted, you'll find the PDF file, their signoff selection, and a link to the PDF health report in two locations within the "Send a File Summary":

  • The "Job Journal" tab
  • The "Work in Progress" > "Files" tab
And that's it- a quick, simple, and hassle-free method for your printbuyers to send you preflighted PDFs!
