Graphic Designer shares insights on preflighting and workflow
Valentin from OCHEDA Graphic Creatives recently called in with a small support question. In assisting him, I learned of his great zeal for using FlightCheck Professional on every job that he produces in QuarkXPress or Adobe InDesign. SO much so that we asked if we could interview him to learn more about his graphic design workflow and how he works with preflighting, PDF and DTP layout applications. Watch the English interview here:

Some interesting facts from Valentin:
- * He ALWAYS first preflights than makes a PDF
- * He makes Enfocus cPDF standardized press-ready files
- * He delivers BOTH the open file and the PDF to the printers
- * He prefers QuarkXPress over Adobe InDesign (and uses both intensely.)
- * He specializes in CD covers, inlays, etc for the music and entertainment sector
So, if you do cd layout or cd cover layouts, perhaps FlightCheck can help you, too. Do you have something to share with us? Leave a comment below!
