How to Make Predictable PDFs the First Time!
First, I love the concept!
As you know, PDFs (even exported to your preferred specs) can often contain real problems that will yield undesirable results. MagCloud's proof process is the publication...which I have to admit is the best proof available. However, the time it takes to get a proof sounds like it would be at least a week...which I suspect is too long for many. And if it is wrong again...repeat the process and hope you get it right the second time...or third time...?
What is the best way to guarantee a great publication on the first attempt? If you're profession is anything but Prepress, it might be best to hire out the PDF creation to a professional. I'm not talking about design...I'm talking about the science of creating reliable and predictable PDFs that will work the first time.
Although this forum is great and will work for many, I suggest that MagClould not be burdened with this aspect of the business. How about creating a MagCloud Preferred PDF Creator network. I would like to be the first! Thoughts?

Inappropriate?FlightCheck Professional from Markzware is a application that checks both the native or source files for issues, before outputting to a PDF as well as the resulting PDF too. It preflights for some 300 potential issues from non-embedded fonts (missing fonts) to dodgey images. How does this sound?
