SANTA ANA, California — Markzware, leading innovator of printing solutions, content search technology, and digital publishing software, announces preflight solution, FlightCheck 7 Mac. This new version of pre-press software for the Macintosh platform has added support to preflight Adobe documents created with InDesign® CC, Illustrator® CC, and Photoshop® CC graphic software for Adobe Creative Cloud. 

FlightCheck 7 Mac is a stand-alone application and an essential preflight solution for creative professionals, printers, graphic designers, and publishers to ensure print quality control for InDesign CC and other native files. Users can run FlightCheck 7 Mac to preflight Adobe Illustrator, Photoshop, Acrobat, InDesign CC, and a wide variety of desktop publishing (DTP) file types, without the native applications.

Markzware FlightCheck 7 Mac pre-press software for Adobe Creative Cloud has Ground Controls that can auto-switch its rule set for PDF files or non-PDF files to manage printing quality. FlightCheck can scan InDesign CC and such documents to alert users to potential printing problems (low image resolution, missing fonts, etc.) and can also collect files to package fonts, images, and print job files into one folder for easy sharing. In addition, FlightCheck 7 Mac can generate a detailed, now more accurate, preflight report to certify preflighting.

John Tyson, project manager, ActionTek, Inc said, “Our client created thousands of PDFs to publish a product catalog. We installed FlightCheck to review all print requirements for compliance, and the software found errors that even the printer’s internal pre-flight routines failed to catch. FlightCheck was easy to use and worked flawlessly. We were delighted with the time and money it saved us in sending press-ready proofs to our printer.”

The FlightCheck 7 Mac license can be purchased on a perpetual or subscription basis via the online FlightCheck Store. The subscription includes, free of charge, all updates made during the subscription term. The upgrade from FlightCheck v6.90 to FlightCheck 7 Mac is available on the FlightCheck Upgrade page.
