Hi everybody, David Dilling here on behalf of Markzware .
Today, we like to cordially invite you to become a beta tester of our new FlightCheck 2022 .
If you're a preflighter or or somebody just interested in quality control of your digital files, or they're going to print or for online use, the new FlightCheck will be very interesting for you. Many will know FlightCheck it's been around for years is one of our old boxes, our original boxes like a big shoe box, you know, and it's a tool that will help you.
Traditionally to stand-alone preflight DTP files before going to print. Nowadays, we have many other features to help with the online usage of files as well.
The new FlightCheck has a totally new intuitive interface.
A new preflight score (FlightCheck Score),
which is pretty amazing, very cool. And very important. FlightCheck will help you to ascertain very quickly what's inside of your file. It's like an x ray. So you can drop any of the files we support like Adobe InDesign, QuarkXPress, Adobe Illustrator, PDFs, of course, and even Photoshop coming soon, you just dropped it off FlightCheck, and you get a report on what's inside based on the preflight profiles, or as we call them, the Ground Controls. So what I'd like to do now is, you know, cruise on over please to our our latest post about FlightCheck, I'll leave the link down below where you can sign up to become a beta tester today. It's really easy. It's just a couple questions, you know, your email,
what type of files do you like to check or what type of 1000 you're working with? And a few other questions. And that's it. It's totally free, of course. And you can try and use FlightCheck in your workflow. And there are workflow features as well, which we'll cover to. So now like do we just give me a quick overview on what is inside FlightCheck how it works, and very brief, and then let you all the professionals get down to beta testing and giving us valuable feedback on what you like, what you want to see what doesn't work or should work, and how we can make it even better.
What's really cool about FlightCheck now
is actually gives you a Preview of the file. And you can actually scroll through that preview. And when you're in the preflight, or sorry, when in the inventory mode, you can actually go down, you get all information on your colours, fonts, and images. And you can see right away with the red things are problems. And if you click on one
under the under the intersection, and we'll show you that in a moment here. So it's really cool. So you get preview, preflight and packaging, like we always say with FlightCheck collecting all your fonts and images together into one folder. And this is really really unique because the standalone and sets us apart from anybody else offering preflight Yes, InDesign as preflight built in, but nothing like this. And then so much other process a much different process here as well. So let's jump right in and show you what we got here.

Alright, you can see all the files open up right like that. It doesn't matter what they are. We'll open up any of the various files with a full preview of the file. And most importantly, all the big data on your DTP file. Everything that's a problem will show up in reddish colour and an arrow will be in a yellowish colour. And you get the full overview and if you switch the mode here, you can actually get your pre flight score mode. With the FlightCheck results interface here. We get a nice overview of everything that's going on in the file.
So this is very handy to quickly ascertain what's going on. Now what's neat, I can say, for instance, a particular image, I can click on, and I actually get this information here. We'll just use this one. And I can actually take notes, please fix
the Hi Res,
The reporting is also very interesting. And let me actually show you a different way to go this portfolio because as a little bit smaller, we get all information on the core file, we get our preflight score, which is very cool. And we can actually even share the pre-flight score.
So I can actually email or even tweet out to somebody, which is very nice. You can now you know, if you're working on a big project, you want to share this everybody it's very easy to do. To go back to the flight check results, sorry, the inspector mode, I can actually go in and say like, Okay, well, you know, let's let's choose the first one is the image, you know, please replace with high resolution. And you can add that in there, you can actually go in and write into court or in its InDesign file into InDesign, same thing, Illustrator, we actually launched an illustrator. But what's cool now if I run a report, which also gets packaged up, when you do that, if you'll see down below the HTML version of the report, see, whereas Yeah, you see the notes we have.

And you can get it in various formats like RTF, and what have you. And when you collect this, you'll get this report as well. So that's you can make a PDF out of your out of your file. So very neat if you're missing a preview PDF, for whatever reason. And these previews are really great to help you very quickly and easily see what the files all about in combination with the actual data that's being used in your file and how it's being used. And where the particular problems are, you know, a huge file like this, if you have a problem, you need to figure out where it is and how you can get pinpointed right to where it is you see is on page 4252, we can actually navigate different ways we could actually a zoom right in there.
