FAQs
What does prepress software actually do for my print or packaging workflow?
Prepress software automates the critical steps between design and print—file preparation, color management, proofing, imposition, and plate creation. It ensures your artwork is print-ready, catches errors before they hit the press, and streamlines approvals, so you avoid costly reprints and delays.
What types of errors can printing inspection software catch?
Advanced inspection systems can detect:
- Text changes
- Missing graphics
- Color shifts
- Barcode issues
- Misregistrations
- Pantone mismatches
- Braille height non-compliance issues
They compare your press-ready files to customer-approved artwork, ensuring nothing has changed before production begins.
What’s unique about packaging prepress compared to commercial print?
Packaging prepress involves additional complexity—like stepped files for maximizing material use, regulatory checks (barcodes, braille), and multi-component jobs (labels, cartons, inserts). Specialized software ensures every element is accurate and compliant before production.
What types of substrates does GlobalVision’s print inspection system support?
GlobalVision’s print inspection system supports:
- label inspection
- box inspection
- packaging inspection
- folding carton
