Deckers Druk in Beveren (Belgium) has chosen Flightcheck Online, from Markzware Europe for checking and sending customers graphic files via the internet.

The company claimed that Flightcheck users have realised increased profitability by having a quality control check at the beginning, middle and end of the print production process.
The application includes checks for layout applications and digital files, including PDF, with the ability to check 250 various items.
