Welcome to FLIGHTCHECK®!
The term “flightcheck” can be simply defined as the process of checking
a document prior to printing in order to catch potential problems.
All elements of the document must be precisely examined in order to prevent
an unwanted printout. Failing to properly and thoroughly “flightcheck” a
document could result in interrupting the throughput process and halting the
job. Either the designer or some unlucky person at the printing or service
bureau would have to return to the document’s application, make the appropriate
corrections and then reprocess the document all over again. For large
jobs this could add up to a tremendous amount of wasted paper or film, lost
time and consequently added expenses.
To fully understand the action of performing a proper “flightcheck,”
consider the analogy of preparing an airplane for takeoff.The service
engineers walk around the plane, clipboards in hand, inspecting each part
for perfect condition and proper functionality. Only when each item on
their checklists have been checked off, can the plane be officially
approved as being “ready for takeoff.”
Just as it is necessary to inspect an airplane before flying, it important to
inspect a document for its required elements before submitting it to
throughput. Once the situation arises where an extremely important or
very timely document needs to be printed, please do not try to tackle the
job without FlightCheck. FlightCheck examines the documents for every
last detail that may ruin a print job. FlightCheck even facilitates the steps
needed to make corrections. Our vision.Your success.That’s Markzware.
Life Before FlightCheck
Before FlightCheck, the common way to check a document was through
trial and error.This is where you print the document, retrieve the
printout and realize your work was not finished after spotting something
wrong.You would have to go back, find the offending items, fix the
problem, then try printing again, and again, until you believed the job
was complete.
Then, as users became wiser, the “eyeball method” became the checking
process of choice.This is where you would bring up your document on
the screen and run down some sort of checklist until you notice a
potential problem. Although experienced checkers have an idea what to
look for, even they are forced to “hunt” for possible problems by closely
examining each element of the document - page by page, box by box,
character by character.This process tends to be very time consuming, and
there is no guarantee of a complete and thorough job every time. If only
one problem is overlooked, the document would need to be reprinted.
Today we have FlightCheck, which electronically scans documents with
high precision and speed, digs into the intricate details of individual
elements and reports to you its findings. In many cases, FlightCheck
reveals potential printing problems that the human eye could not catch.
When FlightCheck issues its final approval, the document can be confidently
sent to be print.The real advantage to using FlightCheck however, becomes
clearly evident when you consider what may happen if you blindly
attempt to print your document without even bothering to first check it.
Therefore, before you go to press, you should always remind yourself of
this very important motto:“What you check is what you get!”
