Some things to check for while proofing your image:

  1. Check that all your text is displaying correctly.  If it's not, check the settings on your PDF creation utility and make sure that you are embedding fonts in the PDF.
  2. If you are using advanced drawing features in your word processor or drawing program, please check that these will be printed correctly.
  3. Of course, please check your spelling, phone numbers, web links, and email addresses.
  4. Check to make sure that you have the correct margins.  For standard (no-bleed) documents you should have a 1/8" white space on all margins.  For full bleed documents see the full bleed help information for more details.
  5. Check to make sure that the "Flip Style" parameter is correct.
  6. Check to make sure you have uploaded all your pages.
