How it works

Check first, submit
when you're ready

Our tools run entirely in your browser. Nothing is sent to our servers until you choose to submit a file. The preflight is free to use with or without an active order — it's just as useful for checking a file before you order as it is for confirming a file against a spec you've already paid for.
