In the print and publishing world, deadlines are physical. If the files don't reach the press by 4 PM, the magazine doesn't print.
You deal with heavy assets: 300 DPI images, complex vector illustrations, and multi-page layouts. Sending these via email is impossible, and setting up FTP accounts for every client is a waste of time.
The Printer's Problem: "Missing Fonts & Links"
- Incomplete Files: Clients send the InDesign file but forget the images folder.
- Email Bounce: "Attachment too large" is the most common error message in a publisher's inbox.
- FTP Barriers: Clients struggle to install FTP clients or remember passwords.
You need a solution that ensures you get the Pre-flight green light every time.
The Solution: SendGB for Print Pros
SendGB is your digital courier service. It handles the heavy lifting of gigabytes of print data so you can focus on color proofing and layout.
Why Publishing Houses Choose SendGB?
1. Perfect for "Package" Folders
InDesign's "Package" feature creates a folder with fonts, links, and the document. SendGB lets you upload this entire folder structure in one go. No zipping required if you don't want to.
2. High-Res Integrity (CMYK & Pantone)
We are a pass-through service. We don't optimize or "web-ify" your images. Your CMYK color profiles, spot colors, and bleed settings remain untouched.
3. No Account Needed for Clients
Stop acting as tech support for your clients. Just tell them: "Go to SendGB, drop the file, and type my email." It's that simple. They don't need to register to send you files.
