Workflow Cheat Sheet
5. Check before delivery
- Finish or revert the active preview. Run a final inspection with the intended scope, modules, profile and language policy.
- Review remaining findings and accepted exceptions. Check overset, tables, footnotes and other omitted structures manually.
- Keep the current report: open Logs → Activity & diagnostics → Copy document report. Paste the copied JSON into a file and save it with the job. A retained older report is not a fresh final inspection.
- Clear issue marks, or use Clear Style Map when that map is active. Check Conditional Text and visible layout; non-printing marks can remain in a saved document.
- Run InDesign Preflight and human proofreading. Export and inspect a clean proof PDF, including line endings, pagination and any corrected areas.
- Save the clean document as a new version and retain the required evidence.
For multiple documents, use Publication → Copy draft report while collecting, or Copy publication report after completing and reviewing membership, coverage and warnings. Publication includes document names; review before sharing. FINAL means collection completion, not automatic editorial approval.
