Markzware Announces the Release of FlightCheck Studio for Adobe InDesign

Rijswijk, The Netherlands—(QUARKvsINDESIGN.com)—July 28, 2005—Markzware, the lead­ing devel­op­er of qual­i­ty con­trol for dig­i­tal files used in the glob­al graph­ic arts and print­ing indus­tries is pleased to announce the imme­di­ate avail­abil­i­ty of Markzware FlightCheck Studio for Adobe InDesign CS and CS2. FlightCheck Studio v1.3 is a new con­cept in qual­i­ty con­trol: Real-time exam­i­na­tion and repair of doc­u­ments as you cre­ate them.

FlightCheck Studio pro­vides con­tent cre­ators with an “in-flight” pre­flight­ing tool; capa­ble of detect­ing vir­tu­al­ly any prob­lem with­in a dig­i­tal doc­u­ment, based on user-defined spec­i­fi­ca­tions. FlightCheck Studio’s main pur­pose is to catch mis­takes in a doc­u­ment while it is being created.

FlightCheck Studio is the per­fect pre­flight com­pan­ion to Adobe InDesign’s “Package” fea­ture work­ing in real time to find and cor­rect design prob­lems while the doc­u­ment is being cre­at­ed. As you go along cre­at­ing a doc­u­ment, with just one click FlightCheck Studio imme­di­ate­ly presents the oppor­tu­ni­ty to locate and quick­ly fix any poten­tial problem.

It func­tions sim­i­lar to the way a spell check­er works. When you mis­spell a word, a spell check­er auto­mat­i­cal­ly high­lights the error, and allows the user to indi­vid­u­al­ly or glob­al­ly cor­rect it straight­away. FlightCheck Studio func­tions in the same way. It will check your doc­u­ment against a pre-defined spec­i­fi­ca­tion. When a devi­a­tion from the spec­i­fi­ca­tion is detect­ed, FlightCheck Studio will alert you to the prob­lem, and will allow you to repair the doc­u­ment prob­lems you select.

The items FlightCheck Studio is capa­ble of exam­in­ing are items impor­tant to design­ers or cre­atives. It can check for page size, lay­out, col­or space, fonts, style sheets, image types, image res­o­lu­tion, etc. Production man­agers can even set up a com­mon spec­i­fi­ca­tion to share with oth­er design­ers. As an exam­ple, a project man­ag­er can cre­ate a spec­i­fi­ca­tion for a pub­li­ca­tion and dis­trib­ute the spec­i­fi­ca­tion to all the design­ers work­ing on the job. This ensures all the design­ers will fol­low the same design para­me­ters. The bot­tom line is FlightCheck Studio saves time and helps elim­i­nate cost­ly mistakes.

This is the sec­ond in a series of FlightCheck Studio prod­ucts and is an Adobe InDesign Plugin which sup­ports InDesign CS and CS2 run­ning on Apple Macintosh OS X 10.2 up to 10.4 (Tiger). The new MSRP for Markzware FlightCheck Studio is $199. You can also vis­it http://​www​.markzware​.com/​store/ .
