Hello people,
I have started a new job in labels and I am trying to find a more efficient way of pdf proofing. A the moment we are making dynamic pdf proofs of each label. This is quite time consuming, each label needs quite a lot of information like roll direction, stock, quantity etc etc.
To do this at the moment these are the steps.
1. Create a pdf of the label that requires proofing.
2. Select a dynamic pdf template with the form fields (roll direction, stock, quantity etc etc).
3. Open the pdf of the label and cut the contents out using pitstop.
4. Paste the label into the pdf template and fill out the form fields.
5. Save the pdf by using the Extend Features in Acrobat reader.
6. Email off to client.
One of the big problems here is steps 3,4,5,6 need to be done every-time the proof needs an alteration (accept for the fill out the fields bit). Also I am a bit scared of cutting and pasting using pitstop.
Can anyone think of a better way of doing this?
