Preflight Report

The preflight report is a job-related report that provides information about the status (missing or found) of key job components prior to printing and enables you to correct your files accordingly.

It is especially useful to run the preflight check before you print a complex job with a large quantity of pages or copies. The preflight check detects the missing job components and displays them all at once in the Preflight Report dialog box. You can review the report and handle the missing components and thus save printing time.

If you run a preflight check, and all key components are found, the job is processed and printed according to the job flow you have selected. If the test fails (missing key elements are detected), the job is returned to the Storage window with the preflight report available for inspection.

The preflight report always reflects the last preflight run, if more than one preflight check is run on a job, the latest preflight report overrides the previous. When a preflight report is produced, the date and time of the preflight check are indicated in the Job History window.

Note: Since the Preflight Report dialog box lists all key job components (missing and found), you can choose to use this report to view the existing (found) key job components, for example the list of the existing fonts in a job, and their corresponding paths.

To view the preflight report:

1.Right-click the job in the Storage window, and from the menu select

Preflight Report.

The Preflight Report dialog box appears. If you selected the HiRes files option in the Preflight Options area, the HiRes Report appears first.
