NAPLES, FL, February 25, 2004 -- PROOF-it-ONLINE, a leading provider of online proofing and approval management solutions, has added a new Manufacturer/Distributor Zone to their browser based proofing and approval management solution at www.proofitonline.com. The Manufacturer/Distributor Zone enables manufacturers who sell through a distributor network to post online proofs for their distributors, who can then automatically route the proofs on to their customers for final review and approval.  The Manufacturer/Distributor Zone improves efficiency for manufacturers, allowing them to turn jobs around quicker and with substantially reduced approval costs, while reducing the possibility of errors or oversights. Distributors are able to get changes and approvals from their customers faster in order meet tight deadlines. Customers are able to mark up and make comments on the manufacturer’s proofs, but without knowledge of manufacturer’s brand or identity. This protects both the manufacturer/distributor and distributor/customer relationships.
