PDF preflight

Print-Ready PDF Checker

A print-ready PDF checker should confirm page size, bleed, image resolution, color mode, fonts, and production notes before a file moves to print. This first version provides the front-end workflow while automated PDF processing is planned for a later backend phase.

Try image resolution first

Checks to run before production

A PDF can look correct in a viewer and still fail in production. The checklist should be tied to the actual product, material, finishing, and trim size.

  • Page size and trim size match the order.
  • Bleed extends beyond every cut edge.
  • Fonts are embedded or outlined.
  • Images have enough effective PPI.
  • Color mode and spot colors are understood.

Why this page exists now

The current front-end page helps test search demand and workflow language before building server-side PDF parsing, report generation, and automatic repair.
