Pixels, crop and effective PPI
The browser can calculate geometry from the values you supply and can read image dimensions locally.
Production gate before export
Check the file and the job
before they reach production.
A real preflight is not one green PPI number. Combine source pixels, final crop, trim, bleed, safe area and the provider’s written delivery requirements, then record what is confirmed and what still needs review.

Connected preflight model
One decision board for the whole job.
Numerical checks are calculated automatically. Production-specific checks stay explicit confirmations because Print Prep Lab cannot know your provider’s current requirements.

Blockers, warnings and passed checks
What the engine refuses to guess
Some checks are math. Others require the provider document.
Bleed canvas and safe area
The engine can calculate the boxes after you enter the provider’s bleed and safe-margin values.
Color and delivery format
There is no universal CMYK, RGB, PDF or JPEG rule. The current provider workflow is the authority.
Proof and finishing
A technical pass cannot guarantee paper, cutting, binding or color. Important work still needs provider-specific proofing.
