Preflighting Color Graphics and InDesign Layouts; Moore’s Law in Prepress

FlightCheck, the patented preflighting technology from Markzware, can preflight documents with color graphics and InDesign layouts. FlightCheck scans pre-media documents in several file formats to avoid printing problems, thus saving time, money, labor and reprints. As the developer of FlightCheck, Markzware saw this piece on Moore’s Law and prepress, which provides insight into pre-media:

“These components of pre-media all have their place of importance and need to be correctly executed and managed whilst considering the hardware they need. I showed in the last post how the effect of Moore’s Law played a part in the productivity of a pre-media department, but increasing your companies hardware performance doesn’t not equal faster throughput without addressing the pre-media operation as a whole, just like having the fastest formula one car doesn’t automatically qualify you as the winner of the race.”
