Cost savings |
| |
»
|
No paper proofs costs, no photocopying
costs and no delivery costs, so if your typesetter is in the Far East,
your author in New York, your proofreader in London, and you are in
Edinburgh – your paper proof costs are zero and your proof delivery
costs are zero |
| |
»
|
There is no licence fee and
no annual subscription, so you can use paperlessproofs as often or
as infrequently as you need to |
| |
»
|
Charges are incurred
only when you create a paperlessproof, based on the number of pages
in the original PDF; you can send the paperlessproof to as many people,
as |
|
| |
|
many times as you need, with no
further charge |
 |
| |
»
|
Built-in reporting lists all
the PDFs you have converted to paperlessproofs with the number of
pages for each document and the date to allow accurate identification
and allocation of title costs |
| |
»
|
For every job you complete
using paperlessproofs, you will save on average 65% of the proof production
and delivery |
|
| |
|
costs compared with traditional
proofing |
 |
 |
Time savings |
| |
»
|
Every time you need to send
a proof to authors, proofreaders, or typesetters, or they are returned
to you, you can save a day or more |
| |
»
|
No more laborious photocopying
of marked proofs |
 |
Quality improvement |
| |
»
|
Completely legible, tidy proofs |
| |
»
|
Transcription errors avoided:
all inserted/replacement text can be cut and pasted between the
paperlessproof and the DTP file
|
| |
»
|
Text and image files can
be attached as part of the PDF file:
new or replacement material always travels with the
proof and is never lost
|
| |
»
|
Text corrections are keyed
onto paperlessproofs, removing problems of hard-to-read handwriting |
| |
»
|
Proofs are always complete,
no lost/missing pages, always in the correct order
|
| |
»
|
Proof-correction symbols
are placed on the proofs, but changes to the underlying PDF are
not possible
|
| |
»
|
BSI proof-correction standard
symbols fully implemented |
 |
Enables a completely electronic workflow |
