Deckers Druk in Beveren (Belgium) has chosen Flightcheck Online, from Markzware Europe for checking and sending customers graphic files via the internet The IT-department of Deckers Druk has built in a full range of automatic functions and many additional advantages, both for the client and the business itself, on the foundation Flightcheck Online's engine

The application checks digital, print-work files of all types such as the high-quality magazines and colour brochures produced by the full-service graphics company.

The IT-department of Deckers Druk has included a users facility for clients, such as log files for checking instantly which files have been received, reports to management and an e-mail acknowledgement of receipt.

Customers can themselves create client profiles, download and install the necessary software and upon receipt of a password go straight to work with the system.

"The server immediately and automatically checks all files with the help of Flightcheck Online.

Roughly 90 per cent of our customers are already making use of this system after just a few months.

We have made the process surrounding Flightcheck Online almost entirely automated so this service can offer even more advantages to customers," said Hendrik van Haele, the IT-manager of Deckers Druk.

"More users are joining every week, both new and existing customers, and everyone is taking to it really well," he added.

David Dilling, the managing director for the European branch of Markzware, said: "Deckers Druk has added on many extras linked to Flightcheck Online and that is precisely the intention with this solution.

You can work with it just as it stands, but businesses can very easily add extra functions." Hendrik van Haele concluded: "The connection to our internal workflow is perfect.

It really couldn't be much simpler.

If any errors or deficiencies are found in a file the sender is immediately sent a summary explaining what must be corrected.

It means less print errors for us, fewer corrections and a reduction in courier costs.

Above all we have a better overview of the files, which have come in and we can plan more effectively." According to Markzware, Flightcheck Online, unlike other 'pre-flighting online' systems does the pre-flight process on the desktop of the sender, providing the results in virtual real-time.

Flightcheck Online is claimed to pre-flight not only PDF files, but also 40 other files types, such as EPS, InDesign and XPress files. Request a free brochure from Markzware Europe ...
