As discussed previously, workflows for approval processes that include hard copy proofs can optionally include reference soft proofs. (For additional information on workflows for hard copy Proofs, see Approval Manager with Hard-Copy Proofs.) The procedure for producing an approval process in each case is described below.
Producing for Hard Copy Proofs with reference soft proofs
1. Upload the reference soft proof(s) for each hard copy proof in the approval process. Instructions for this are described in Uploading Files to an Approval Process.
2. Compile a list of all reviewers assigned to the approval process. (You can see reviewers for each stage by looking at the Proof Details page for the approval process.)
3. Deliver the hard copy proofs to all reviewers.
 | Note: The manager may wish for you to send out hard copy proofs only for the next active stage. If that is the case, s/he will have to manually route back to production after each stage is completed so that you will know when to deliver hard copy proofs to reviewers in the next active stage. |
4. Complete the stage once all hard copy proofs have been delivered.
Producing for Hard Copy Proofs without reference soft proofs
1. In the File Management window, type a name for each proof in the approval process. Since you will not be uploading reference proof files, you will have to, at a minimum, provide a name for the file before the Production Stage can be completed.
2. Compile a list of all reviewers assigned to the approval process. (You can see reviewers for each stage by looking at the Proof Details page for the approval process.)
3. Deliver the hard copy proofs to all reviewers.
| Note: The manager may wish for you to send out hard copy proofs only for the next active stage. If that is the case, s/he will have to manually route back to production after each stage is completed so that you will know when to deliver hard copy proofs to reviewers in the next active stage. |
