File Preparation and Submission
Proper file setup reduces revisions and keeps Marston Web Print jobs moving on schedule. Designers should use CMYK color, embed fonts, and supply 300 dpi images for crisp output.
The upload portal validates PDF standards, checks trim boxes, and confirms page counts before a quote is generated, minimizing costly mistakes and reprints.
Proofing and Approval Workflow
Automated proofs are available digitally within hours, enabling stakeholders in different locations to review layout, color, and messaging without delay.
Approve-to-print controls ensure that no job proceeds without final sign-off, maintaining brand consistency and supporting compliance requirements across regulated industries.
Production Scheduling and Tracking
Once approved, jobs enter a transparent production queue with estimated completion windows visible to authorized team members.
Custom tags and priority lanes let marketing campaigns align printing with launch dates, while audit logs track every status change for internal reporting.
Distribution and Finishing Options
Marston Web Print offers folded direct mail, saddle-stitched booklets, stitched perfect-bound reports, and die-cut premium packaging.
Automated shipping integration sends tracking numbers to procurement dashboards, so mailed pieces and boxed collateral reach regional offices and customers on time.

FAQ
Reader questions
What file formats does Marston Web Print accept for digital printing jobs?
Marston Web Print accepts PDF/X-1a and PDF/X-3 with embedded fonts and CMYK color. High-resolution JPEG images at 300 dpi are supported when embedded within the PDF.
Can I change the order priority after the job has been submitted and priced?
Yes, you can request a priority change by updating the job ticket, subject to production capacity. Expedited processing may apply additional fees based on current shop workload.
How are color approvals handled if my brand requires strict Pantone matching?
For precise Pantone matches, Marston Web Print adds a physical press proof step, which extends turnaround by 1–2 business days. Digital proofs display close estimates but are not a substitute for signed press proofs.
What happens if a job exceeds the stated page count during preflight checks?
If page counts change, the system pauses the job and notifies the submitter for confirmation before proceeding. Pricing is recalculated automatically, and any adjustments require re-approval to maintain compliance.
