For managing ad hoc commercial print jobs, XMF Remote Express is an online system for commercial printers to provide a quick and easy way for clients to upload PDF files for printing and to approve jobs online before printing. To upload files or to approve proofs online, clients simply click on a link sent to them in an email.
XMF Remote Express allows your clients to upload PDF files in a managed environment. Unlike using email or services such as Dropbox or WeTransfer, XMF Remote Express allows clients to upload PDF files directly into the workflow. The files arrive preflight checked and are automatically assigned to the correct job within the XMF Workflow.
Once a job has been created within the XMF Workflow you can send your client an email containing a web link that takes them directly to a web browser window where the PDF files are uploaded to the relevant print job. Because preflighting takes place during upload, any PDF issues are flagged before the files are committed to print production.
Providing online proofs for clients is as simple as the PDF upload process. You send an email from the XMF Workflow containing a web link for the client to review and approve a job for printing. Once approved, the job within the XMF Workflow is automatically advanced to the next stage of print production.

XMF Remote Express is an extension to the XMF Workflow system. Unlike many other products in the market it does not require additional hardware to run. It can be installed and run on the same hardware as the XMF Workflow system thus minimizing the cost of implementation.
XMF Remote is designed for printers who are managing print jobs from a large base of customers. The system can be installed and configured for use in less than one day. The ease of use of the user interface means that you can immediately start using the system to allow your clients to upload PDF files and review proofs online.
XMF Remote Express significantly reduces the number of times a PDF is opened, moved or copied in the print production process. Because PDF files are delivered directly into the workflow there is no longer a need to move or copy files to the workflow or to check if the latest version of the file is being used. Reducing the number of touchpoints reduces any potential for making mistakes.
