Artwork proofreading

The final file gets the final check.

Posters, packaging faces, labels, print files: LYNCE reads the finished artwork against the approved copy and flags every line that doesn’t match, before production runs it.

RC7 ≠ approved copy

Approved at RC4. Wrong at RC7.

Nobody re-proofreads the whole artwork on every revision. That’s exactly how a late “tiny text change” rides an approved file into production. LYNCE re-reads all of it, every time.

Was this right?Correct

LYNCE reads what it says

Every word, price, date and claim on the artwork, verified against the approved copy: the half of pre-press no print tool covers. Why that’s its own category →

Sign off with a record, not a feeling.

A clean scan is a document: what was checked, against which references, with zero findings open. Attach the report link to the production handoff and the question “was this proofread?” has an answer anyone can open without a login.

For multi-page print files like catalogues, brochures and manuals, the same check runs page by page. PDF proofreading, up close →
