Adobe InDesign gets PreFlighting


InPreflight, a comprehensive quality control solution

Zevrix Solutions today announced the release of InPreflight, a comprehensive quality control solution for Adobe InDesign that will let users quickly and easily locate potential problems and produce error-free documents.

InPreflight gives users extensive information about all document's fonts, colors and links and allows to quickly spot potential problems according to user defined preflight settings. For the first time since the release of InDesign, its users have access to such a robust, fast, user-friendly and affordable preflight solution. InPreflight will save users hours of checking their documents manually and dealing with consequences of costly mistakes.

In preflight settings, users can select various attributes to be flagged as problems, such as color mode, font type, image effective resolution, link status and others. InPreflight also reports information about several link attributes otherwise unavailable in InDesign, such as TIFF and EPS compression, fonts in native Illustrator files, existence of embedded fonts and resolution of duotone images.


Users can also generate detailed preflight report, open links in default application and show them in InDesign document, reveal links/fonts in Finder and activate InDesign's Package command directly from InPreflight. Users of the Xinet FullPress workflow have an option to automatically relink images to hi-res OPI volumes before preflight.

InPreflight 1.0 can be purchased from the Zevrix Solutions web site for an introductory price of US$24.95 (http://www.zevrix.com), as well as from authorized resellers. Demo is also available for download.
InPreflight 1.0 is available for Mac OS X 10.4.2 and higher, and works with Adobe InDesign CS and CS2.
