    Challenges in print projects

    Unclear change requests

    "The headline needs to be different" – vague feedback by email leads to misunderstandings and unnecessary rounds of revisions.

    Scattered feedback

    Comments arrive by email, phone and chat. You lose track, and important corrections get overlooked.

    Print deadlines at risk

    Delays caused by unclear approval processes put print deadlines at risk. Campaign launches have to be postponed.

    Expensive printing errors

    Spelling mistakes or wrong contact details – once printed, thousands of flyers are worthless. Systematic reviews are missing.

    How draftgo supports print projects

    Precise annotations

    Mark the exact spot in the flyer or poster that needs correcting. With a comment right in the design.

    Multi-page documents

    Multi-page brochures and magazines can be uploaded in full and commented on page by page.

    Structured approvals

    Define approval loops: marketing reviews first, then management, then the final print approval.

    Print data checklist

    Systematic checks of all print-related requirements: bleed, resolution, colour mode, embedded fonts.

    Proof approval

    Upload the final proof and have everyone involved approve it – before it goes to print.

    Version control

    Every correction is versioned automatically. You always see which version is current and what has changed.
