Just a few years ago, we would receive files on a removable drive or via FTP. The files had to be un-zipped, copied to a server, images linked, fonts loaded, PDFs made and hard copy proofs shipped to a customer. Upon return, corrections made and resent to client or checked in-house. So many file versions passing through different hands left room for error and delayed production time.
Today, with XMF Remote, PDF files are uploaded from the customer directly into our workflow (XMF) via the XMF Remote portal. Any changes or alterations made by the customer are dynamic to our workflow, since they are the exact same file we use to print. Automatic notifications of files uploaded and their approval status, keep both the customer and our prepress department aware of your job’s status!
Today, around 85% of our customers use XMF Remote. The benefit is speed (turn-around time) and less chance of error. We are all working from the same files; so, no time lost un-zipping files, relinking fonts and images. Say goodbye to copying files from one server to another!
