Preflight and Package Multiple Documents
Preflight Multiple Documents and
Package Multiple Documents
FlightCheck is powerful preflight software that can preflight multiple documents, as well as package multiple documents. Among other abilities, it can collect all files into one folder, eliminating the need to collect the same links multiple times for each design. This is especially useful when you package Illustrator or InDesign files in multiple documents that share the same linked images. This saves valuable production time and money. If you package Illustrator when you preflight multiple documents, then FlightCheck is the ideal stand-alone application to use. Preflight with FlightCheck is a very important step in the ideal prepress preflight workflow.
FlightCheck’s Collect Window allows you to customize the way you collect and package files for several file classes, including Acrobat, Illustrator, InDesign, QuarkXPress, and many more file types. FlightCheck offers several collect options to customize when you collect for output. With FlightCheck’s Collect Menu, collect files easily from many collectable file classes of fonts and images. The number of collect files and the total uncompressed job size are shown in FlightCheck’s Job Info.
When you preflight multiple documents, FlightCheck can also compare documents. Each Overview Window that is open in FlightCheck is a report for a Top Level document, when you preflight multiple documents. Therefore, when you preflight three documents, you will see three documents, Overview Windows and a Results Window open in FlightCheck.
Watch how FlightCheck can preflight Illustrator and other file types, as well as package Illustrator and several file formats:
In the FlightCheck Preflight Menu, select “Preflight Document” to recheck any open documents, including to recheck multiple documents, in which case they will all be rescanned when you choose Preflight Document. (Pressing Command-F, or the Recheck button in the FlightStrip, also invokes this command.) Also in the FlightCheck Preflight Menu, you can select “Launch Document” to launch your current open document’s native application in the latest version of the application that it can find. (Example: If you preflight Illustrator CS4 document and have both Illustrator CS4 and CS5 loaded on your computer, FlightCheck will try to launch the document in Illustrator CS5.) For multiple documents, FlightCheck will launch the native application for the document in the frontmost Overview Window, unless your computer does not have access to the native application.
FlightCheck enables you to preflight and package multiple documents, including to preflight Illustrator or package Illustrator. To purchase FlightCheck, please visit the FlightCheck Store on the Markzware website.
