Preview, Preflight, Report & Package PDF & DTP Files
FlightCheck is a stand-alone preflight application for macOS to preview, preflight, report, and package desktop publishing files, such as .pdf, .qxp, or .indd. This software tool can be used within DTP applications or as a stand-alone app and provides a comprehensive preflight check, which includes data on used fonts, images, colors, and other document elements.
FlightCheck's Benefits Include:
• Flexibility for specific workflows providing results based on your chosen checkpoints.
• Several options to help Publishing and Print professionals that include inspection, analysis, and reporting for both PDF and non-PDF documents for error-free output.
• Saving expenses of material, labor, and time. For example, FlightCheck reduces the risk of costly reprints and avoids the extra effort that a manual check of large documents would require. It speeds up prepress and print production by eliminating time-consuming steps.
• Peace of mind and assurance for you and your clients because print jobs processed with FlightCheck are validated with a complete quality control check.
Drag-And-Drop Preflighting For Quality Control
Matt Mayerchak, Type Composition and InDesign Production Expert, as well as Principal at Mayerchak & Co., LLC, states, “There are several ways to preflight files with InDesign; but for ads, I find it best to use a multi-step approach. The first step is to use … FlightCheck from Markzware, just to see if there are any problems. … it’s a lot faster to just … drop it on the FlightCheck icon and verify that it’s OK.”
