Proof approval for print shops

Upload the proof, send the customer a link, and they click on the exact spot that needs a correction. Comments are saved per page, and the job is marked Approved when they sign off, so there’s a clear record before anything goes on press.

A PDF report open on page 3 in edits.io, with comments pinned to a chart

The problems it solves

Corrections described in emails

“The phone number on the back is wrong” becomes a pin on the number itself, on the right page.

Approvals you can’t find later

Each job carries a status (In Review, Changes Requested, Approved) next to the comments that led to it.

Customers who don’t want another login

Customers open the proof link and comment under their name, with no account to create.

Frequently asked questions

Does edits.io check print files for bleed, resolution or CMYK?+

No. edits.io is for customer comments and sign-off, not preflight. Keep using your prepress checks before sending the proof.

Can customers comment on a specific page of a PDF proof?+

Yes. Comments are pinned to a spot and saved with their page number.

How do I get the approval in writing?+

Ask the customer to reply “approved” to the review email and set the project to Approved. Our final approval email template covers what to say.
